Bees! They’re great. As long as you don’t agitate them, they’re not out to get you. Only 7 species produce the honey humans use but the rest are important pollinators and deserve love too.
Meanwhile, wasps may be assholes but they’re ecologically important assholes. Hoverflies are where I see most people get confused, but they are purely beneficial and harmless. I actually had one hang out with me while I worked on this in the park.
This is Bazz the Beekeeper. A black lab who is specially trained to sniff out disease in bee hives. In Australia the bees do not stay inside and it isn’t safe for Bazz to go in sniffing without protection. So his owner created a custom beekeeper suit to keep him safe. And it is kinda adorable.
