Bumblebees have four wings.
The two back wings are smaller and are usually attached to the bigger front wings by a row of hooks.
This can sometimes lead to the mistaken impression that they only have two wings.

Relatively hardy and able to vibrate their bodies to create heat, #bumblebees are able to forage in cooler temperatures than honey bees.
They can begin foraging earlier in the day and continue later into the evening.

Bumblebees don’t have ears!
They rely on sensing sounds vibrating through nearby materials with all of their body.

‘The silence often of pure innocence
Persuades when speaking fails.’
- Shakespeare

I don’t share all of the teeny tiny tattoos I do but this one is super cute and I had fun, also the white and yellow is a little angry and red since it’s fresh… don’t mind that 🤫

Thanks for the trust Leia!
