Bumblebees are peaceful creatures. Bumblebees can sting, but it’s rare. Some people even refer to them as “gentle giants” because of their size and passive nature. In most cases, bumblebees will leave you alone as long as you leave them alone. Interestingly, only female bumblebees can sting. Male bumblebees cannot. Bumblebees come in different sizes depending on the species and their role within the colony. The bee above is a smaller one.


I love having Bumblebees around as pollinators.
