- The word ‘bumblebee’ is a compound word (bumble + bee). The word ‘bumble’ means to _Hum, Buzz, Drone, or to move ineptly or flouderingly
- Bumblebees can fly very quickly. They can reach ground speeds of 54 kilometres per hour (km/h).
- Bumblebees can do more work and carry more pollen than other bees, including honeybees. In fact, they can do 50 times as much work as a normal honeybee.
