I don't know if bumblebees with blonde mohawks are common elsewhere, but I haven't seen many. It was slow moving and almost clumsy - very unlike the fast, aggressive, jet-black species in the same area. Even so, I still feel lucky to have gotten this one close shot of a very odd looking specimen (Bombus melanopygus).

Fantastic close up with good details.
Maybe there is a hairstylist for bumblebees... I surely never saw a blonde one before.

Happy New Year to both of you too.

As well as all the blondes and others spanning the rainbow.
