Bumble-bee, probably Buff-tailed bumblebee (Bombus terrestris) covered in pollen in Sea Thrift (Armeria maritima) at Walberswick, Suffolk

---

This is probably the Buff-tailed bumblebee (Bombus terrestris) but could also be a White-tailed bumblebee (Bombus lucorum). Other pictures show a faint yellow band at the start of the white tail which indicates the former.
