She's definitely of camponotus genus, but I'm not sure what kind. I'm guessing Pensilvanicus but I'd like some more knowledgeable opinions. She's about 23mm long, small hairs everywhere (that I didn't even see until I used my new macro lens), and pretty calm. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!

Forgot to mention - found her toward the end of April/beginning of May, not sure of exact date.

Re: Camponotus something (Western Oregon)
The pictures are dark -- could be Camponotus modoc or C. laevigatus.
