Looks like a Tree Bumble Bee (Bombus hypnorum). Recent colonist from continental Europe probably helped by global warming. They are unusual for bumble bees in that they nest on holes in trees rather than in old mouse holes on the ground. See https://www.bumblebeeconservation.org/tree-bumblebee-bombus-hypnorum/
