| | | Bombus pascuorum?
I'm pretty sure this is Bombus pascuorum, but would like to check with the experts here to make sure.  
Unfortunately I don't have a good photo of the abdomen, but it appears to be blond hairs near the edges with mostly ginger and a few black hairs down the centre.
I'm not sure how long these bees are normally around for, but this one looks in good condition, and was taken on 11th September.
Thanks

The black hairs on the abdomen make it Bombus pascuorum. |
