These animals have something very special

It wasn't easy to take this photo.

It shows a lavender branch in our garden. About 20 bumblebees buzzed through the air, flying from flower to flower. That was precisely the problem: They only sat still for a short time.

I managed it somehow, thanks little bumblebee.

But why do I find bumblebees so wonderful?

1. They don't sting me; they are peaceful insects.
2. Theyt bother me while I eat.
3. Their humming has a calming effect on me.
4. They are busy pollinating my flowers.
5. Despite their body structure, they fly.

I was sitting on the terrace in summer. It was a beautiful day, but I wasn’t feeling well. My mind was racing, and I was restless.

It was only by consciously observing the bees that I regained my calm. I was fascinated by the effect these little buzzers had on me.

Can you understand that?
