CLOSED: A huge bee

Aquebogue, NY

black bottomed bee hovers around my wood deck; carpenter bee?

Sinks Grove, WV

If the abdomen is shiny, it most likely is a carpenter bee - see http://www.fs.fed.us/wildflowers/pollinators/images/carpenter_bee_lg.jpg. If the abdomen appears fuzzy/furry, it most likely is a bumble bee - see http://www.digital-nature-photography.com/nature/GR10/GRIEH270701-0322.jpg
