The Living Forest (277) : Common Carder Bee

I spotted this Common Carder Bee at work on Purple Deadnettle.

This species of bumblebee is present in most of the European forests.

Purple Deadnettle is a herbaceous flowering plant native to Europe & Asia and is often called a weed.
Though superficially similar to a Stinging Nettle (Urtica dioica) in appearance, it is not related and does not sting, hence the name "deadnettle".

Dutch name : Akkerhommel op Paarse dovenetel
German name : Ackerhummel auf Purpurrote Taubnessel
Latin name : Bombus pascuorum / Lamium purpureum
