Sorry if this has been recently asked.  But I was watching the girls blast out of the hive yesterday and wondered if they've ever been clocked?  They seem awfully speedy to me..
Anyone know?

Honey bees and bumbles fly about 15 mph, between 8 and 10 when they have a load.

American blood spilled to protect the freedom and peace of people all over the world.  320,000 USA casualties in WWI, 1,076,000 USA casualties in WWII, 128,000 USA casualties in the Korean War, 211,000 casualties in the Vietnam "conflict", 57,000 USA casualties in "War on Terror".  Benghazi, Libya, 13 USA casualties. These figures don't include 70,000 MIA.  But, the leaders of one political party of the United States of America continue to make the statement..."What difference does it make?".

"We can't expect the American People to jump from Capitalism to Communism, but we can assist their elected leaders in giving them small doses of Socialism, until they awaken one day to find that they have Communism."..."The press is our chief ideological weapon." - Nikita Khrushchev

What if it's a cat 4 hurricane or a F5 tornado?
