Sunny this afternoon in Jersey - saw my first bumble-bee of this year.

Smirk - we've had them around here for about 3 days. ;-))

First queen white-tailed w/c 20th Feb. (probably the saturday, which
would be 27th). Second one this week, although no species id as it was
just a bumble-sized fluff flying across the garden and backlit by sun.
