I can’t believe I caught THIS on camera… a bee having a wee! 🐝👇

Yep, it turns out that bees do wee, well kind of – but not like we do. Apparently they’ve got a clever little system that gets rid of wee and poop in one go, usually mid-flight, so they don’t mess up the hive (that’s very well trained!)

It’s normally such a blink-and-you-miss-it thing… but while I was filming the echinops in full bloom at @fieldgateflowers this week, one bee just went for it right in front of me.
