CLOSED: All black insect with small yellow patch on back

Austin, TX

Found in central Texas, on my front porch, it looked injured, I put it into a plastic spider carrier. I would have thought it was a wasp but it has fuzzy legs which them may mean it's a bee of sorts. It's about 1.5 inches in length.
