Midsummer

Mostly insects these days. The flowers in Woodcock Meadow attracted quite a variety -- this guy is named Bicyrtes quadrifasciatus ...


... and this one is a Great Golden Digger


This is a tachinid fly, genus Archytas ...


... and this is a honey bee, Apis apis


Can someone identify the flower that was attracting all this activity?
The only bird that allowed a decent photo was this Common Yellowthroat in the downed evergreens --
