Buff-tailed bumblebees are the biggest of the bumblebees and emerge in early spring. Buff-tailed bumblebees are known as ‘nectar robbers’: if they come across a flower that is too deep for their tongue, they bite a hole at its base and suck out the nectar. Afterward, other insects looking for nectar will also use this handy hole.
