The Honeybee’s Antennae
A honeybee has two antennae which are 1
bent. They are very sensitive and can pick
up the flow of air and temperature which
helps the honeybee land safely. They can
also taste and smell with the antennae.

The Honeybee’s Mandible
The honeybee’s mouth parts are
called the mandible. 2
The honeybee’s mandibles are too
small to bite human skin but they
can be quite dangerous for other
insects that try to invade the hive.
They use their mandibles to drink
and eat.

The Eye Of The Honeybee
A honeybee has five eyes. It has 3
two large eyes that are made up of
many tiny lenses. We call these
large eyes compound eyes. These
eyes allow the bee to see
movement very well. Honeybees do
not see the same colours as we do.
They can see ultraviolet light which
is impossible for us to see but they
can’t see red.

A honeybee has three other eyes


called ocelli. They are in a triangle
shape on the bee’s head. They
can’t see images but they can see
light and dark. Back to

The Honeybee’s Wings
The honeybee has two pairs of
transparent wings that are attached
to its thorax. Honeybees flap their
wings very fast, it is almost
impossible to see the wings
flapping while the bee hovers or
flies.

The Honeybee’s Legs
Honeybees have 6 legs that are attached to the 6
thorax. The hind legs have pollen baskets on them
that the bees stuff full of pollen to take back to the
hive. The baskets are transparent (see-through) so
when you look at a bee you can see the yellow
and orange pollen inside the baskets.
The honeybee has a special notch on its front legs
that it uses to help keep its antennae clean.

The Honeybee’s Sting
A honeybee is the only kind of bee with a
barbed (hooked) stinger. This means that
it can only sting once and the sting stays
behind in the creature that they have
stung. Unfortunately, when a honeybee
stings, part of its abdomen - the venom
sack - is left behind connected to the
sting. This means that the honeybee
dies. This is why honeybees only sting if
they feel they are in a lot of danger and
to protect the hive.
If you are ever stung, make sure you
scrape the sting out and do not squeeze
the venom sack connected to the sting.
