The perfume-seeking behavior is where the bee-utiful orchid bees get their name. The males are especially easy to spot as they hover over plants searching for that perfect smell, and orchids have some amazing adaptations that exploit this behavior to ensure pollination. These orchids lure bees in with enticing scents of vanilla, cinnamon, and …rotting meat. Yuck! #bees #life #pollinators #orchid #flowers #beauty
