The yellow seems a bit pale to me; could it be Bombus lucorum?
The trouble is that tired old workers of Terrestris tend to look similar, and I get so confused.
Is there an expert available? |

just to add to the fun, I reckon this is Bombus hortorum given the 2nd stripe on the thorax and shaggy look.
