Field Notes

Habitat:

Mixed forest

Notes:

A lot of these kind of bumblebees are searching for something on the ground lately, I believed it might be some kind of search for a nice spot to build a hive, but they are practically everywhere. In one day I might spot two dozen of them in the forest, all doing the same thing.
