A bee of a different color



The Knapweed is coming into full bloom these days, and the bees are attracted to their blossoms. I saw these two on the same clump at the marsh this morning. The one at the top I'm pretty sure is a Tricolored Bumble Bee, but I haven't i.d.'d the one with the green abdomen. It might not even be a bee, as there are some insects that mimic bees. Any ideas??
