Two were working the flowers next to Braham's. I got up close looks but my phone camera malfunctioned and only got one shot which is unclear. My wife and I counted one section of thorax, front one, yellow and three sections of abdomen yellow. Looked exactly like American Bumble Bee on the bumble bee charts showing identification features. Identification confirmed by email and description and photo by the Texas Bumble Bee Watch.
