WHITE TAILED BUMBLEBEE

We've just come in from watching the female Tit go to roost, at a record late time of 19:52. It has been very sunny here today (not a cloud in the sky all day) and ridiculously warm for mid April at 26c, so the longer light and warmer temperature may have contributed to her late roosting.
We also noted our third bee species, nosing around our "compost heap", looking for a place to nest?
The White-Tailed Bumblebee. Slightly smaller than the Buff-Tailed, with no buff hairs on its white arse, and a lighter yellow thoracic band than the almost ginger band of the Buff-Tailed.
