- The eyes of BEE are with a field of vision of 280 degrees, more than two and a half times the 100 degrees that form the field of human vision.
- All worker BEEs are female.
- A BEE produces a teaspoon of honey (about 5 grams) in her lifetime.
- To produce a kilogram of honey, BEEs fly the equivalent of three times around the world in air miles.
- The type of flower the BEEs take their nectar from determining the honey’s flavour.
- To get more BEEs in your garden grow more colour.
- BEEs don’t want to sting you because they die.
- There are over 20.000 different species of BEE.
