BEE Honey bees collect nectar to take back to their hive for food. Worker bees visit more than two thousand flowers each day. Bees make honey and they can sting.

They were very big. Their wings were 75 cm wide. Today the biggest dragonflies are 19 cm across their wings. They are the fastest insects and they can fly up to 97 km an hour.
