Bees

Bees are flying insects; they feed on nectar (an energy source) and pollen (protein and other nutrients source)

Pollen is used as food for larvae

Bees have long proboscis (tongue) which help them in get nectar from flowers

They have antennae on their head, made up of 13 segments in male bees and 12 segments in female bees

They have two pairs of wings, 6 legs and 2 eyes

Mainly the body is divided into three parts; head, thorax and abdomen

Facts About Bees:

Their predators are kingbirds, mockingbirds, bee wolves, and dragonflies
They are major pollinators; they play an important role in transferring pollen from the anther to the stigma of a plant, thus helping in the reproduction of plants
Bees may be solitary or may live in various types of communities The bees who live in group are eusocial (good social) The group comprises of mother and daughter bees The mother is considered the “Queen” and the daughters as “workers” At certain stage male bees are also considered as group member, male bees are known as drones that mate with queen Solitary bees constructs nest herself
Eusocial bees provide honey, wax and pollinate but solitary bees are only pollinators
Queen lays about 3000 eggs in a day, fertilized eggs will become female offspring, while unfertilized eggs will become males
A honey bee hive can contain up to 40,000 bees
Bees flap their wings 230 times per second and their flight speed averages only 15 miles per hour It can fly for up to six miles
It takes about 556 workers to gather 1 pound of honey from about 2 million flowers

Butterfly

Butterfly is an insect

They are cold blooded animals (i

e they maintain their body temperature)

They play an important role in maintaining the balance of nature and health of the living world

They pollinate wild plants and our crops, ensuring the production of seeds and fruits required for the continued survival of plants and animals, including humans

They go through complete metamorphism

Their life cycle is of four stages: egg, larvae (caterpillar), pupa and adult butterfly

They undergo a wonderful transformation from caterpillar to fantastic winged adult

Their normal life span is 2 to 4 weeks

They have their skeletons on the outside of their bodies, called the exoskeleton

This protects the insect and keeps water inside their bodies so they don’t dry out

Facts About Butterfly

Their taste sensors are located in the feet, and by standing on their food, they can taste it! All butterflies have six legs and feet
Butterflies smell with their antennae Butterflies breath through openings in their abdomen called "spiracles"
Butterflies are the second largest group of pollinatorsnext to bees
Female butterflies usually are bigger and live longer than male butterflies Butterflies range in size from a tiny 1/8 inch to a huge almost 12 inches
Butterflies weigh only as much as two rose petals, but can fly thousands of miles
Butterflies can’t hear, but they can feel vibrations
Butterflies can see red, green, and yellow
Caterpillars shed their skin to accommodate growthjust like snakes have to
Since butterflies are cold blooded it is necessary for them to warm up their flight muscles This is done by basking in the sun in order to absorb heat
Butterflies can attain a flight speed of up to 50 kph Butterflies cannot fly if their body temperature is less than 86 degrees
They feed primarily on nectar from flowers Some also derive nourishment from pollen, tree sap, rotting fruit, dung, and dissolved minerals in wet sand or dirt
