Most people’s instinct is to swat at a bee (or wasp) if it comes near them. This one was flying around the pool today looking for a refreshment on a hot dry Texas afternoon. Just needed a little drink. Slurping up the water on my hand. Wet hair is also an opportunistic way for them to get water. Although I’ll be the first to admit it’s a learned skill (20 years keeping bees) to stay calm when a bee is buzzing around your head.
