Bees are incredible! There are so many different kinds found all over the world, from honeybees to diggers, leafcutters, and even meat-eating vulture bees.



Discover how a bee's eyes see the world in a unique way, how bees pollinate plants, how they communicate with a waggle dance, and how without bees, the world would be a very different (and much less wonderful) place.
