About it
This is a brown-banded carder bumblebee, a small, fuzzy bumblebee of Europe's grassy meadows. Carder bees make their nests on the ground in thick grass and cover them with bits of moss and grass that they comb into place.
Tap it and the fuzzy body shivers, the wings hum, and it hovers up with a slow, clumsy wobble before settling down. Bumblebees can shiver their flight muscles to warm up, so they can fly on cool mornings when many other bees stay home.
