BUFF-BREASTED SANDPIPERS-08075323-
Edinburgh Zoo has four buff-cheeked gibbons. We have two females: Lucy, who was born in November 1996, and her daughter Lea, who was born in January 2003. They both came to us in September 2004 from London Zoo. They were soon joined by an adult male, Jon, who was born May 2000. He arrived from Ljubljana Zoo, Yugoslavia in February 2005. Lucy and Jon became proud parents to a healthy son, called Cheeky, in February 2006, and another baby was born 2 May 2010. As of June 2010, the baby has not yet been sexed

I think this is a queen buff tailed bumblebee, Bombus terrestis. On a garden geranium in Warwickshire, 28/5/2011.
The Buff Banded Rail seems to be "off with the Pixies" for just a second. In any case, it made a nice change from trying to obtain a decent focus on something that normally darts around the place.
Bombus terrestris, the buff-tailed bumblebee or large earth bumblebee is one of the most numerous bumblebee species in Europe. The queen is 2–2.7 cm long, while the workers are 1½–2 cm. The latter are characterized by their white-ended abdomens and look (apart from their yellowish bands being darker in direct comparison) just like those of the white-tailed bumblebee, B. lucorum, a close relative. The queens of B. terrestris have the namesake buff-white abdomen ("tail") tip; this area is white like in the workers in B. lucorum.
Such bees can navigate their way back to the nest from a distance as far away as 13 kilometres (8.1 mi), although most forage within 5 km from their nest.
10-3-12, Hull: First Bee in my garden this year, and a beauty a good inch or so long. I wonder if it might be a Buff-Tailed Bumblebee (Bombus terrestris)? Hoping to get some help with the identification
11-3-12: Had one offer of Buff-tailed which is what I thought - quite reassuring that.
