Thank you, Joseph!
Now that I don't have to be afraid of getting stung, I may try getting
up-close & personal and shooting it with one of my 50mm primes if it
keeps coming around. It's a cool-looking critter, ain't it?

If it's some kind of bee, it's not like any I've ever seen before. But, I'm
sure some PDML'er will be able to inform me.

P/S: I also got a couple of hummer shots while I was out there:

I couldn't remember most of what I know today
if it weren't for others sharing their knowledge
of my past on the Internet. Thank you…
