Another bee with tatty wings
A common carder bee Bombus pascuorum foraging on purple toadflax Linaria purpurea. The wings are looking somewhat worse for wear after all that work during the season.

Colour is very pleasing to look at. If I have to complain, I would like to see bee slightly out of centre :wink:.

Cheers,
