- This clever bee has superior pollination abilities that collect pollen twice as fast as a honey bee. When pollinating, the heavy bumble bee clings to the bottom of the flower and vibrates its flight muscles, producing a “buzz” sound. The pollen falls out of the flower onto the bumble bee. This makes them awesome tomato and blueberry pollinators. Bumblebees can harvest pollen from flowers 400 times faster than honey bees can. Fast but not furious, the bumble bee queen and workers have stingers, but seldom sting.
