This
beautiful BUMBLE BEE was here in our classroom to have a drink, but it’s
important to note that bumble bees are built to pollinate.
In New
Zealand bumble bees were imported to pollinate some crops. Many species of
bumble bee have longer tongues than honey bees, so they can pollinate flowers
with longer petals. Also, bumble bees are very hairy and so they are perfect
for picking up and transferring pollen.
Why do you
think it’s important for us to take care of bumble bees?
