Large Red-tailed Bumble Bee (Bombus lapidarius) going solo and filling up on the only nectar around in a field mostly containing dry grasses and docks bearing seeds. I expect this field to be cut for hay this week as it is usually the first thing to be done to ease access of machinery for harvesting the adjacent wheat.
What a beautiful creature and I love the colors of the flowers with the bee’s red color.
Thank you, Claudia.
