How on earth does a bumble-bee show 'remorse and disgust'? Texting last night's companions to apologise for their behaviour? Recycling their cans and bottles under cover of darkness? Commencing a juicing diet in order to detox?
Bombus lapidaries does none of these things. The lush.
Perhaps you are wondering when Humblebees became Bumblebees? Well wonder no more readers... wonder no more:

I do not know why drunk bees surprised us so. In Orkney of yore, even the babies were at it.
