This was in the garden yesterday. Could someone please tell me what it is. I take it, its not something to worry about.

    It looks like some kind of ichneumon wasp to me, although I couldn't tell you which species. They parasitise moth larvae. So they're a fascinating part of your garden's ecology.

    Thank you @WillowBark and @pansyface

    Pansyface I think you are right, I just searched it and it does look like it. 

    I love it when you discover a new visitor to the garden. 

    Thank you both.
