I've decided this is not a bumblebee, but is a fly in the genus Mallota.

I have decided this is not a bumblebee, but a fly in the genus Mallota. So, we don't have this type of bee in Mississippi, either. ;-)

I am amazed, too. There is such a variety of plants and animals here. I try to let nature take care of things, and she does pretty well.
