Summary
[edit].jpg&action=edit§ion=1){kind=link}
| Description | A bumble bee queen, most likely Bombus vosnesenskii, feeding on California Phacelia. We can see she has a corbicula on her hind leg, yet is carrying almost no pollen. She browsed quickly and fed among many blossoms. I think she's nourishing herself before getting back to her colony. Among bumble bees this time of year, the worker females collect pollen—the queen doesn't have to. Although dropping out of focus on this shot, we can see that the trailing edges of her wings are a bit worn with an uneven edge. She's about 3/4" long and appears healthy, in spite of the worn wings, which is common among bees. |
