Interesting read……….

A slew of factors—its acidity, its lack of water and the presence of hydrogen peroxide—work in perfect harmony, allowing the sticky treat to last forever

Ok, who is ready for some amazing science?

Bees are pollen collecting machines!!! A bee can carry 30% of its body weight in pollen, mainly because of strategic placement of their nearly three million hairs! The hairs cover the insect’s eyes and entire body in various densities that allow efficient cleaning and transport. Research has found that the gap between each eye hair is approximately the same size as a grain of dandelion pollen, which is typically collected by bees. This keeps the pollen suspended above the eye and allows the forelegs to comb through and collect the particles. The legs are much hairier and the hair is very densely packed — five times denser than the hair on the eyes. This helps the legs collect as much pollen as possible with each swipe. Once the forelegs are sufficiently scrubbed and cleaned by the other legs and the mouth, they return to the eyes and continue the process until the eyes are free of pollen.
