Red-tailed Bumblebee - Bombus lapidarius

By Mendipman  
Back when all the Devils-bit Scabious was starting to come into flower and whilst there were already lots of active bees about, there were a few that had spent the night on the flowers.

Best viewed large.

Many thanks for the votes and comments on the previous upload of the Large Red Damselfly and especially to Andro (eyelevelphotographyuk) for your user award, very much appreciated. GrinGrinGrinGrin
