Dear Blossom, I congratulate you on World Bee Day. You've been with me for a few years and I've reached level 4230 with your help. Here is my map:
A fact about bees:
What color attracts bees?
Bees prefer to fly to the colors blue and yellow. They cannot recognize the color red as such – because bees are red-blind. When the bees leave their hive to explore the surroundings, they see the red flowers only as a dark spot.
Thanks @DieOmimi
Facts
A honey bee can fly up to 15 miles per hour. A honey bee worker only makes an average of 1/12 of a teaspoon in her lifetime. One ounce of honey would fuel a bees flight around the world. A pound honey is made by 2 million flower visits.

Hi @DieOmimi
Nice contest
Happy World Bee Day 🐝
Fact
Bees are remarkably tidy. Bees are very meticulous. They groom each other and keep their hive incredibly clean.The hexagonal shape of the honeycomb is the most efficient shape in our world.The pattern allows for the cells to be packed with no empty space in between. Though the wax is thin and delicate the structure of the hexagonal cells can hold a tremendous amount of weight.Bees communicate by dancing!

Hi @DieOmimi nice contest
Here is my map
Without our pollinating bees, most vegetables wouldn’t grow and flowering plants wouldn’t survive! Which flowers do bees like the most? See the best flowers to attract bees to the garden—with the nectar, food, and pollen that bees are after!
I’m sure many of you have dealt with the frustration of seeing blossoms fall off your vegetable plants because they have not been pollinated. Bees are important to our whole ecosystem. Further, the bee population is at risk due to overuse of pesticides so it’s important to not only plant flowers that bees need the most, but to also never treat them with pesticides. Try planting Lavender.
Hello @DieOmimi . Here is my current level.
Bee loves flowers and makes honey. Bee also is attracting to yellow, because its color is nearly similar to the honey.
Through I don't have any of my own garden, I still send my wish to the special day. Happy World Bee Day.
