I always enjoy watching bumblebees going about their business. Observed this Bombus appositus (white-shouldered bumblebee) last weekend visiting a population Gentiana parryi (Parry's Gentian) in the Pecos Wilderness, Santa Fe National Forest, New Mexico. Earlier in the season, before the Gentiana are flowering, I have seen these bees visiting several other genera of wildflowers including Monarda, Oxytropis, and Penstemon. #Bombus #Bumblebees #Bees #Pollinators #Botany #Wildflowers

Bombus hortorum queen in the garden. A long-tongued species which seems to be declining so glad to see her around. #Bombus #bumblebees

Bees, Bombus and Buff
Bees - our friends - bumbles, solitary and honey.
Bombus - the genus of #bees comprising bumblebees and Latin for booming/rumbling.
Buff - as in Buff-Tailed Bumblebee (Bombus terrestris) one of our most common bumblebees.

Die Dunkle und die Helle Erdhummel (#Bombus terrestris) lässt sich auf Fotos kaum unterscheiden und werden bei der Plattform #Naturbeobachtung.at als eine Gruppe gemeldet.
Weil sie einen kurzen Rüssel haben, beißen sie die Blüten von der Seite an und klauen den Nektar. Oben an der Blüte ist deutlich ein Loch zu sehen.

#Hummeln zählen zu den #Wildbienen. 45 Arten wurden bisher in 🇦🇹 gefunden. Sie spielen eine große Rolle für die #Bestäubung von Wild- und Nutzpflanzen, denn manche Art besitzt einen längeren Rüssel als die Honigbiene.

Die Bärtige Kuckuckshummel (#Bombus barbutellus) sieht der Gartenhummel ähnlich und sie parasitiert auch diese.
Sie fliegt erst ab Ende April.

Most of my #iNaturalist observations, and much of my #Photography, are of #Insects, especially #FlowerVisitors/"#Pollinators". (Not all who visit, pollinate. Some are hunting!)
In the spirit of the season, I'll share some fave #Macro #Photos.
My most frequently observed #Species is #Bombus impatiens, the Eastern bumble #Bee.

One thing is clear from #CitizenScience data on #iNaturalist...#Bombus sonorus is much more commonly observed in #Mexico compared to #Bombus pensylvanicus.

#Social #bees, e.g., #Apis and #Bombus, have larger #foraging ranges than #solitary bees, because bigger bees have greater flight abilities, and also because bees from greater colonies need to travel further to avoid competition with their colony members.

I think it was to do with a queen being introduced to queen less colonies.

I posted this on twitter a while ago, but perhaps you might be interested....
You can identify 100 #bumblebee species with AI. Just cut out the bee image and upload it. I tried some pics---wow, it even identified #Bombus deuteronymus (although it didn’t tell me its subspecies name “maruhanabachi”). Fast & accurate! #pollinators #identification #biodiversity #bees
