Collecting nectar

Hidden between the grasses, I spotted this Buff-tailed Bumblebee at work on Tufted Vetch (also occasionally known as Cow Vetch or Bird Vetch).

Tufted Vetch is a rather unusual but fast-growing wild plant with drooping purple to violet flowers that are very much appreciated by bees and butterflies as a rich (but not easy accessible) source of nectar.

Dutch name : Aardhommel op Vogelwikke
German name : Dunkle Erdhummel auf Vogel-Wicke
Latin name : Bombus terrestris / Vicia cracca
