Venation Pattern
Bumblebees are known for their ability to generate a high lift force, enabling them to carry loads that exceed their own body weight. This capability is largely attributed to their small, broad wings, which move in a figure-eight pattern to create vortices and increase lift. This wing motion is highly efficient, allowing for exceptional maneuverability and stability, even when carrying heavy pollen loads.
