Worker Bumble Bee

The bees are very busy in my sister's garden this afternoon. Not particularly sharp but interesting because of its polen baskets on its hind legs. This is probably a worker bumble bee.  In queens and workers the polen is groomed into the corbiculae (pollen baskets) on the hind legs where it can be seen as bulging masses that may contain as many as a million pollen grains. You can read more on this LINK.  Nice weather here in Glasgow  -  no sun but nice and warm. Have a nice evening, everyone.
