    Bumblebees have to learn how to get nectar from flowers.
    They will usually visit the same flowers every day as long as they keep finding nectar and pollen.
    This is called flower or #pollinator constancy.

    If a single raised middle leg doesn’t warn you off a bumblebee will often raise her other middle leg too.
    Persist and she may go belly up to reveal her stinger.
    Males do likewise but are bluffing - they have no stinger!

    Bumblebees get all of their food from flowers.
    Nectar is usually found deep inside flowers - which come in all shapes and sizes.
    Bumblebee tongues vary in length and this can determine which flowers they forage upon.
