Bombus sp.
Bee in the bee's balm. Sorry they are fuzzy, I'm taking pictures to help overcome my phobia of them. It also doesn't help that they don't stand still! lol
Maybe - but when I was little, my mom was terrified of them. And I learned to react to them and to treat them all as dangerous - even if they aren't. I'm learning that they are very useful to have - and being scared of them won't let me enjoy my garden (which I am also learning about)!
Bumblebees are very gentle. I have not known them to sting. My daughter use to pet them gently.
