Bumble bees fly in daylight. They don't fly in the dark.

Flying squirrels actually glide not fly

Humble bumble...bee? Shy fly.
to be scientifically correct, bees shouldn't be able to fly because their bodies are too heavy for their wings, but they fly anyways
It all depends on how big the bee is AND the horse fly is.
20 mph is the max speed of a bumble bee. The average speed is 15 mph I would say under 10 mph. I don't know where the answer above came from, but I can tell you that I was just out riding my bike in no wind and had a bumble bee in FRONT of me for about 20 yards while I was going 27 mph. I would say they could go close to 30 for short distances in good conditions.
The myth behind this is unclear but it's possible that it originated from an after dinner speech where an aerodynamicist did some rough calculations, probably in jest, that proved that due to it's wing size, beats per minute and weight of it's body, it would be impossible to fly. Clearly this is untrue as a bumble bee can most certainly fly.
No, that's just a myth. Bumblebees are able to fly due to the unique flapping motion of their wings, which creates lift and allows them to defy aerodynamic predictions based on their body size and wing size.
Bumblebees are actually very important in our world! Bumblebees take pollen from some plants that have a lot of pollen and give the pollen to plants that don't have as much! You would think that they are mean but they are actually very intelligent and sort of kind! I know you are probably thinking "What do you mean? Bumble bees sting people?" But if you see a bumble bee, stay really still and they will either land close to you or fly away! Almost 100% of people get stung because of them swatting at a bumble bee or running away from them! Remember to stay still and try not to kill bumble bees only if they are threatening you!!
