@gemswinc I believe this is a Half-Black Bumblebee 🐝 At first glance, I thought it was a carpenter bee, due to the black circle on its thorax, but quickly realized its abdomen has yellow and black hairs! Awesome!!!

@Valkyrie_D I'm not good at IDing bees, so I appreciate your input. I'll check it out, have B ID books. Good morning 🐝 happy
@Valkyrie_D 🐝 Book perusal has me chosing Eastern. Thanks again!
@gemswinc good~morning!! It could also be an Eastern, depending on how many yellow lines are on its abdomen!! 1 line is Eastern, while 2 indicates a Half-black. My eyes are not the greatest and I can’t tell if there’s 1 or 2 lines, there 🤣 I hope you have a wonderful day 🐝 💕
