Looks like one of the Bumble Bees. Since you are 'in hiding' I can't be sure if this will help or not but here is a link. This is for bees of the US. Scroll to the bottom of this page and there are links to Eastern and Western US Bees that is very good.

It was a waterproof point and shoot. I shot in macro mode at a distance of 6"or less. Picture taken on the great plains in Montana.
