Bees are swarming insects.A colony of bees usually consists of a queen bee, 1% of the males, and 99% of the worker bees. Under normal circumstances, there is only one queen bee in a swarm, and a queen bee can lay 1,500 to 2,000 eggs in a day and night!

Did you know? Bees vibrate their wings to heat up their bodies. In winter, to avoid freezing to death, bees will clump together and vibrate their wings to keep the temperature inside the hive around 100 degrees Fahrenheit.

While bees can recognize human faces, humans cannot distinguish bees. So, when you are chased by a bee it is not necessarily that you look like a flower, it could be that you accidentally offended it one day.

Bees are the only insects that produce human food. And when there isn't enough honey in the hive for the winter, bees will rob other hives and kill their queen.

For today's drawing tutorial, let's learn how to draw a bee. It has a body like a gyroscope with big eyes and small wings that look very cute!
