Bees
According to all known laws of aviation, there is no way that a bee should be able to fly. Its wings are too small to get its fat little body off the ground. The bee, of course, flies anyways. Because bees don't care what humans think is impossible.”</q?
-Narrator, Bee Movie (2007)
The bee, ever a determined creature, has remained nearly unchanged in its nature and pursuit since time immemorial. This is reflected in its distinct black and yellow striped pattern, openly -- and lowdly -- stating "I have a job to do, don't mess with me."
Physical Description
Bees possess six legs, which are used for crawling around and up certain surfaces. They are also used for landing on and taking off from flat surfaces.
Bees also have a pair of antennae, which are used
and compound eyes. They have a body segmented into three parts
History
Unchanged throughout untold millennia, the bee's life is a simple yet elegant one: keep the flowers blooming, keep the honey flowing. Rinse, repeat. Now, you may be different. You may be tired of the monotony of it all. You may be seeking something greater. Or maybe you're just bored. Time will tell, won't it?
