Hello,

You are not alone as I didnt know that eitherPusser said:From the above link I copy and paste this need to know info...
One common, yet incorrect, assumption is that the buzzing sound ( listen (help·info)) of bees is caused by the beating of their wings. The sound is the result of the bee vibrating its flight muscles, and this can be done while the muscles are decoupled from the wings, a feature known in bees but not possessed by other insects. This is especially pronounced in bumblebees, as they must warm up their bodies considerably to get airborne at low ambient temperatures.[4] This is how bumblebees can sometimes reach an internal thoracic temperature of 30 degrees Celsius (86 degrees Fahrenheit).
I didn't know that but I expect everyone else does.![]()
