🐝 Up close with a tiny worker of nature. Every hair, every detail, just a few millimeters wide.
Macro shot of a honey bee resting on a leaf. 🐝🍃
At this scale you can see the fine golden hairs that collect pollen, the textured legs with tiny claws, and the glossy armor-like head.
Did you know? 🌼
A honey bee has five eyes: two large compound eyes and three small simple ones on top of the head.
Those body hairs are branched, which helps them trap pollen.
One bee visits hundreds of flowers a day, and without pollinators we'd lose a huge share of our food crops.
