It was last seen in Michigan in 2006. Rusty-patched bumble bees are active May through November. Where the species remains elsewhere is often in natural areas within an urban/suburban settings--essentially natural habitat islands, isolated from other natural areas.

A close-up photograph shows a fuzzy bumble bee with black, yellow, and reddish-brown bands resting on pale pink flowers. Its translucent veined wings and antennae are visible, with a softly blurred green background.
A model wrote this. It was shown the image and the catalogue record together, and asked to keep them apart — what it saw is here, what the record told it is under "taken from the record" below. It is still wrong often enough to matter, about who is pictured, where, when, and what is happening. Read it as a way to find the image, never as evidence about it. If you can correct it, please do: write to michael.bommarito@gmail.com, or see how corrections work. Someone who recognises a face or a shoreline knows more than the model did.

Taken from the record
Not observed in the image — supplied by the archive's own catalogue, and repeated here so the two stay distinguishable.
The accompanying post asks viewers to look for the endangered rusty-patched bumble bee and states that it was last seen in Michigan in 2006. The post links to bumblebeewatch.org and says the species is active May through November and associated with milkweed and other native flowering plants.
Could not make out
Stated rather than guessed at.
The bee's species cannot be confirmed from the image.

Why this archive publishes it. Public Facebook groups and pages run by island organisations and residents. Each item credits the poster by name and links to the original post. Removal on request.
Material goes off the web without anyone deciding that it should: a host lapses, a gallery is retired, a link stops resolving. Holding a copy — with its provenance, its checksum and its holder's terms recorded beside it — is much of why this archive exists. If you are looking for something whose original has since gone, write to michael.bommarito@gmail.com and a full-size copy of what is held here will be sent to you.
Recorded verbatim from the provenance sidecar taken at retrieval — this archive does not restate a holder's terms in its own words, does not add a restriction the holder did not state, and does not abridge one.
