Bombus on Manzanita 4024a (23799101600)

Image of Black Tail Bumble Bee

Description:

Description: Spotted! Our first sign of Bombus this winter. This is almost certainly Bombus melanopygus, the "Black-tailed Bumble Bee," feeding on a Sentinel Manzanita. She's got to be a founding queen, trying to fatten-up and get her brood ready. No sign of males, yet, but I'll keep looking. Date: 31 December 2015, 14:16. Source: Bombus_on_Manzanita_4024a.
