Species Account:
They seemed like a gray bee. They have a very specific sound like a whining buzz when they interacted with a flower. They were very fast. I immediately thought of a wasp/yellow jacket by a glance. I do have a video. They were very adamant to get to their flowers on my tomato plants and paid me no mind. 4black stripes on the bum.
