Description
When: July 13, 2019
Where: Kölner Zoo Köln/Cologne, Germany
Many of the outdoor aviaries are surrounded by lavender bushes, which attracts heaps and heaps of Bees and Bumblebees and other flying insects.
We do love Bumblebees of all sorts - they are so cute and fuzzy and clumsy and it's lovely to see them get drunk on nectar.
Which isn't very smart, because the bushes are also surrounding the aviary of the *gasp* Bee-Eaters... When one Bee ventures inside, it's over and done with.

I’ve never seen one of those bees before. Are they only found in Germany?

I have seen these kinds of Bumblebees also in the Netherlands - maybe they're European?
