Description: A Canadian honey bee (Apis mellifera) extracts nectar from an Echinacea purpurea L. Moench, Bravado using its proboscis. Tiny hairs covering the bee’s body maintain a slight electrostatic charge, causing pollen from the flower’s anthers to stick to the bee, allowing for pollination when the bee moves on to another flower..
