Love bees, not always the case. I had to have an standard inoculation, on the same day got stung by a bee (might of been wasp) on the forehead, it left a scar, still got it.

    Happy National Bee Day!

    Getting stung on the forehead doesn't sound fun, especially bad enough to leave a scar! My other half once sat on a wasp and was stung many times on the thigh.

    I've always found bees fascinating, they're so tiny yet contribute so much.

    I once had a 'fight' with a bee, but I'm taking the 5th on that.  :)

    We use maps, the ways bees remember where pollen can be found as they go 'buzzing' around, so they can tell other bees, is through dance. With the route in their head, they go to the hive and do a dance.

    That's fascinating how they do that, I would never harm a bee, but I've just discovered a wasps nest I need to kill

      If all the bees were to die mankind would only live for 4 years

    I think if that were to happen, Personkind would improvise, they already do that in various ways.
