Bombus fervidus, f, side, National Arboretum, DC
Detailed Description
From the U.S. National Arboretum comes the now relatively uncommon Bombus fervidus. A species in delcine, but still present and how nice to have this one present right in Washington D.C. Pictures by Ashleigh Jacobs. Photography Information: Canon Mark II 5D, Zerene Stacker, Stackshot Sled, 65mm Canon MP-E 1-5X macro lens, Twin Macro Flash in Styrofoam Cooler, F5.0, ISO 100, Shutter Speed 200.
