  1. One of the first bumble bees of the year. She was crawling around on the ground from flower to flower then climbed up one of the bigger Pickwicks but couldn't quite get into the flower then flew off. Probably Bombus huntii.

  2. Bombus on the tall sunflower. I see a lot of pollen coming off of it too with all the yellow specks on the leaf below it.

  3. The pansies are still blooming. I figured they'd be done once it warmed up, and then maybe when it got really hot, but they persist.

    There's a big bumblebee on this one that sorta blends in.

  5. I was trying to get a photo of the little bees after I took photos of this big bumble bee but wasn't successful but I see I got a good picture of one with the bumblebee. I think it's a Ligated Furrow Bee minus it's usual coating of pollen but it has a little bit stuck to it. The big ones is a Brown-belted Bumble Bee Bombus griseocollis I think.

  6. Saw some honey bees on the rhubarb, maybe 2 or 3. I'll probably give it a few days and cut them off when they start making seeds.

  7. *edit @Spaceways Suggested a Yellow-haired Sun Fly, Myathropa florea, the Batman hoverfly, and they have been identified in the region, and it really looks like one.
    ...

    Some kind of drone fly I guess. Seems more yellow than most of the photos of the 'Common' one. It's on a chokecherry blossom.

  8. Honey bees on apple blossoms. Both of the Esopus Spitzenburg, or Spitz, are full bloom now and everything else is still blooming with some bee activity.

  9. I'm seeing some honey bees on the hyacinths today. Not sure this is one of my bees, it looks a little different to what I see at the hives. One I saw yesterday getting goose water looked similar and behaved a little hotter than my bees. Lots of movement, maybe bee hand waving. 👋 Maybe Italians? 🤔

  10. Some native bees on the flowers. Bombus vagans on a cucumber, a tiny and black bee or wasp on the bee balm, some sort of longhorn bee on rudbeckia, and Bombus vagans again on the hyssop.
