Over the past several years=2C I have been concentrating on photographing =
=0A=
all the Bumble Bees of NS. This goal was inspired by a file received =0A=
from David McCorquodale which presented illustrations on how to identify=0A=
 them (to a degree). There are 9 species of "regular" bumble bees & 3=0A=
 "cuckoo" species in NS. To date I have photographed 7 regular & 2 =0A=
cuckoo species. I have posted about 35 or so photos to illustrate the =0A=
difficulty of identifying them from photos. Very few of them can be =0A=
identified in a straightforward manner (at least by me). Other than the =0A=
first five photos=2C all have been reviewed by several experts. With a few=
=0A=
 photos there was no consensus. They can be viewed here:
