Are Bees Really Blue?

Are Bees Really Blue?

Yes! And purple, green, all-yellow, all-black… bees come in many colors and patterns! That bee in the picture is a blue carpenter bee. She makes her nest inside a tree, chewing into the wood to form a little oval-shaped home. Carpenter bees also make honey and are about 1 1/2 times longer than a honey bee. For a little bug, she gets a lot of buzz.
