Common Bumble Bee

For several weeks, the bumble bees have been busy in the trumpet vines outside our home.  Close-up, its amazing how much "hair" these guys have on them.  This one also had a "damaged" right antenna (about 1/2 of it is missing).  I was shooting with a macro lens and only a couple inches away much of the time.  Despite being so close, the bees paid little attention to me.
