DID YOU KNOW Bees buzz by beating their wings 230 times a second The garden bumblebee has a tongue as long as its body It uncurls its long tongue to get nectar deep inside plants
BOLD BODIES Like many insects bees have six legs On their legs are little baskets for collecting pollen Bees have two sets of wings The front set is large and the rear set is smaller And they have two big eyes and three small ones If a honeybee stings a human the stinger will stay in the human’s skin A honeybee will die without its stinger But a bumblebee can use its stinger many times 6
