Slo-Mo Footage of a Bumble Bee Dislodging Pollen

Buzz pollination is a special technique for dislodging pollen from certain types of plants - and bumble bees are among the few species of bee capable of doing it.

I like bumblebees very much🌌
In comparison with other pollinating insects like honeybees, bumblebees are very effective pollinators. They are first of all fast workers (for instance, they visit twice as many flowers per minute as honeybees), and because of their size, they can carry relatively heavy loads, which enables them to make long foraging trips. Also due to their relatively large size they often achieve better contact with stamens and pistils than smaller insects.
In addition bumblebees are so cute and fluffy!❤️💛 💚 💙 💜 Thanks for video!

I just watched a bee do this to my blueberry bush. The way the light was coming through I could see the pollen shower the bee. First time in my life I'd seen it. Very cool.

Bees are such amazing and industrious creatures. People need to do more to ensure their survival. Don't call exterminators for bees find someone that either keeps bees or rehomes thme and most of the time you'll get the job done for free.

Wow that was some incredible footage. Wish I had an unlimited budget to get such high end equipment.

Flower: Yes
Thats how bees question flowers

Never swat at a bee, many people have the misconception that a bee is just out to sting you, however this is the furthest from the truth! I have saved many bees that have trapped themselves inside dwellings and bouncing on the windows trying to escape. I simply wait for them to calm down a bit, offer my finger for them to perch on, take them outdoors to the closest flower.

I just saw a bumblebee outside my window and I wanted to see it up close so I watched this. Bumblebees are fascinating!

Your actualy looking at the sound resonance the bumble bee uses to levitate. If you notice it's going up as it vibrates without flapping it's wings. The wings are for.control.but they levitate with the sound

This is actually a carpenter bee that has black, shiny abdomen. But good video nonetheless!

[lunamonsta]

OMG! I was afraid until my friend told me what they were doing! They vibrate and shake the pollen off. It's so cool to see 😮😎

[JoCaTen]

Just witnessed this happen so I decided to watch more

[GoodChemistry]

Amazing video, so cool to see them in that detail! Thanks for sharing :)

Thank you for posting this! Very informative, clear and concise. Thank God for bees! Hi from Belarus bee's forests!

Just saw like 10 honey bees, a decently large spider, and a single bumble bee today on my lavender plant. The bumble bee had giant pollen balls on each of his back legs and they totally looked like some knee pads

[Mke_KP]

Wow that honey bee made that white flower nut up like Ron Jeremy 🤣🤣

[jknell]

I love these guys and honey bees too. Now, when I do my Bhramari meditation I will have these images flying in and out of my head.

The white flowers with yellow anthers in the second half of the video is Solanum sisymbriifolium (common name vila-vila, sticky nightshade or red buffalo-bur), I believe.
