I’m not sure if this is a CA Bumble Bee. The white hairs just below the face seemed tufted, a bit too long and white. But maybe that’s a question of age and wear and tear? The bee was feeding on Woodsorrel flowers in one of the grass fields here.
Las Virgenes Creek Trail
Feeding on California Aster.
Pin isn’t exact, probably +- 30 meters along this trail from the point.
Feeding on California Buttercup, alongside several beetles.
From pic 5: the bee was suddenly jumped by another bee (food fight? mating attempt?) who quickly left. There were at least 20 juicy looking buttercups available to feed on (https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/72368226).
