The
attractive yellow, black, and red males of the familiar Large Red-tailed
Bumblebee Bombus lapidarius are
much more colourful than the females and workers of this species and they are
also easier to photograph when feeding than the frenetically active workers.
Beware similar looking red-tailed cuckoo bees (the females of which will lack
pollen-baskets). This is one of the seven common bumblebee species likely to be
found in any gardens lying within its geographical range.
