They're also bees, which are notably distinct from humans in ways almost too numerous to count.

Can I please have another bee fact?

According to all known laws of aviation, there is no way a bee should be able to fly. Its wings are too small to get its fat little body off the ground. The bee, of course, flies anyway because bees don't care what humans think is impossible.

That was bumble bees specifically, and we do know how they fly

bees sometimes fly, like flies, but not exactly like flies; though they do fly. Bees do. Well, flies also fly, but differently. Not that differently if you don't care about such distinctions, but pretty differently if you do. I wish I could fly. That last one wasn't a bee fact. It was a me fact.

I read this with Morgan Freeman voice and thoroughly enjoyed it.
