I am in need of some help identifying this bug. I have searched and searched and have no idea what it is. The picture was taken at Rainbow Springs State Park in Dunnellon, FL. Thanks for any help you can give!

A type of bee perhaps?

It's a Radio Active Bee that has escaped from Springfield!!

First off, lovely image! I love not only the bee, but that rolled-petal flower it's on...what's the flower?

Second, thanks for asking about the ID! I took an image of one recently and guessed it was a bee but wasn't sure :-)
