Giant aphids and lady bugs and another winged insect on willow tree branch

Not a clue what kind of yellow jacket this is, but there’s a bunch of em around these pines.

Found around flowers

Not certain what type. They were very friendly though. Would not stop investigating us.

Dead individual, apparently fished out of the creek. I'm not entirely sure about this species, but it is likely ion this area.
