Chicago, Illinois (Edgewater)
Nikon Coolpix P7700 + Canon 250D (+4) multi-element close-up lens
The bee was in a garden along Wayne Avenue between Devon and Rosemont.
Common Eastern Bumble Bee – Family Apidae : Bombus impatiens
Editing was done with Affinity Photo 1.7. I made a slight adjustment to the curves, increased the saturation and reduced the vibrance. I decreased the brightness and increased the clarity. Lastly I used the High Pass filter to increase the sharpness.

We have bumble bees too but they are black in colour.
We have different species in our area – 8 or 9, I think – but they are all variations on black and yellow. The patterns differ.
I am cautious of bees and once was bitten by a bumble bee but it lived. I had to get an injection so the venom would not harm me and it didn’t.
I used to be allergic as a child but as an adult not so badly affected but I still would go to a Dr just to be on the safe side
I am not frightened of them at all. Most of our bees are quiet and don’t bother people.
I was stung as a kid and my leg swelled up a bit but that was the extent of it. I got stung by honeybees, which are much smaller, probably because we used to take our shoes off and collect them by stunning them with our bare feet. I never said I was particularly bright as a kid.
I nearly died from a bee sting when I was 4 years old… So I know I must be careful. I don’t think I would have that reaction but go to the Dr immediately if I got a bee sting to be on the safe side.
Yeah, I would see why you wouldn’t want to fool around with the possibility of getting stung.
I stay away from bees since I have been victim of bees in the past
I’ve been taking photos of them since 1970 and haven’t been stung by one yet. I did get stung a lot when I was a kid.
