Hi All
Today in my workshop there was a Bumble on the window.
A big bees - even bigger than most Bombus Impatiens that I see.
I tried to catch it with my cap but it kept escaping and going back
to the window so I caught it with my hand and carried it outside.
It just walked around in my hand as I did so
The interesting thing about the bee was that it had an banded abdomen
black and yellow - 4 or 5 bands of each. The colors not too bright.
Different than any bee that I've seen lately.
Anyway it flew off to some rhodies.
Enjoy the summer
Paul
