Bumblebee 2

Bumblebee 2 (Order Hymenoptera Family Apidae)

Bumblebees are social insects, living in a communal caste system. Living in or on the ground, each nest has at least one queen bee accompanied by a host of drones and worker bees. Most bumblebee colonies last for only one season, with the queen overwintering and beginning a new colony in the spring. [BM] {PF}
