"Because insects, both winged and wingless ones, perceive [objects] a long way off, like the bees and fig‐loving midges perceive honey; because they sense at a great distance as if they are aware [of the objects] through the smell"
Aristotle(4th c. BC) Historia Animalium IV.VIII
I see artists on twitter making rainbow wheels and I wanted to do one with bees! I'm sure an artist can do rainbow bees better but I wanted to use my own bee photos 😁

@chris_LeDuck This is amazing! I found Lestrimelitta invading a Nannotrigona nest, and they didn't let them in. It was so cool I couldn't stop watching them!
