Had a large all-yellow one fly out of the car one warm afternoon shortly
before the recent snow. Wouldn't have been B. ternarius, because there was
no orange. Hope it found safe shelter before the weather crapped out!

That would be a Queen, Paul. Interesting sighting as usually Bombus
ternarius (Tri-colored) is not the first Queen out. That's usually Bombus
impatiens (Common Eastern Bumble Bee) which is the most common bee in the
spring/early summer. Have yet to see any so far.

Subject: [NatureNS] Bumble Bee
Hi All
The first Bumble Bee that I've seen this spring visited the garden today.
A beautiful tricolored bee - big - it checked out the hyacinths
and a few dandelions that are out. I had hoped it would come
to my hand for some honey but I wasn't that lucky.
Some years there are rhodies out by this time but some deer
made a lunch of my early rhodie earlier.
A lovely day - enjoy the spring
Paul
