It was fun finding both expected species of bumblebee on the trail this morning: American Bumblebee and Sonoran Bumble bee. Another example of east (American) meets west (Sonoran) in central Texas! I even saw both on one flower very briefly but couldn't get a photo.

This is a Sonoran Bumblebee.

AFter seeing these black wasps with bright yellow antennae a few times on the trail, I'm excited to finally get this mediocre photo of it so I can learn what it is!
