it looks exactly like the image of the "steenhommel", thank you. i
already found a lot of information about it now that i know it's a
red-tailed bumble bee.
unfortunately, i think it died... yesterday it didn't move much -
didn't fly at all, just crawled around a little. it is still almost at
the same spot where i found it yesterday, and it doesn't seem to move
anymore at all.
i will try to pick it up so i can look at it more closely before i mow
the lawn in a couple of days (if it's still there then). too bad, it
was actually kind of beautiful!
thanks for you help,
randy
