These have little white bands on their bodies
A very happy bumblebee with heavily laden pollen sacks on its hind legs. Only the female has these sacks but I would appreciate hearing from our bee experts among our blogging friends to tell us for sure. Hi Erika, I always enjoy those interesting posts on your bee hives.
Those bee sacks are on the middle part of its hind legs, so I read.





wow How gorgeous are those shots!

ReplyDeleteYou made a nice poster board. Oddly enough, I posted one today, but it is not as pretty as yours.
ReplyDeleteBeyond gorgeous photos!
ReplyDeleteI've never noticed these pollen sacs before, I shall be looking for them on every bumblebee I see from now on, haha.
