@Rikki Gins I was at a BBQ yesterday. This little creature wanted to try the smoked ribs. 'It' passed out for a few. Smoke got in it's eyes.
What is it? A drone?

A couple of thirsty bees drinking some water.
Great shot. I like the reflection of your bees in the water.

I would guess that you saw a male Eastern Carpenter bee, indigenous to your area.  A male, because of that unique yellow patch under it's eyes.  The female bees don't have that.

Fascinating, Annie!  Are those ash cones off in the distance?

You know, I don't know. There is a college near here, I'm tempted to see if there is a class about the area.

Wow! Nice close up.  :) Love bees.
There was a little girl,
            Who had a little curl,
Right in the middle of her forehead.
            When she was good,
            She was very good indeed,
But when she was bad she was horrid.

@Rikki Gins  you are a fountain of knowledge!  :)

Thanks @PolkaDot.  Awfully sweet of you to say.  I like to learn things and then pass the information on to others.  I'm always looking things up.  Kind of strange, actually.  I'll look something up even if I already know about it, just to get certain facts straight in my mind.  :)

Somebody up there likes me...or my EllGab Garden, not sure which.  This plane does not appear on a daily basis, more like once every three weeks or so.  It will make like half a dozen passes before moving on.  I saw US Navy on the side of it once, but there are no navel bases around, last time I checked.
