Barney the Bumble Bee is an adorable new
friend of Hamilton's who had no idea what
he was missing out on in life since he always
had his head in a flower.

Barney spent every moment of every day flying from one flower to the next eating pollen and honey only to find he had gotten too big for his wings!

When he fell to the ground and couldn't take off in flight again he began to panic and it was up to Hamilton to show him the way.

Did you know that bumble bees can't see the color red?

“Barney Bee may I ask why you skipped all those blooms,

those red flowers looked really great.”

“What flowers?” he asked as he looked at his friend,

then turned and stood very straight.

“Which flowers? These ones.” “Oh those?

We can’t see them, bees, are color blind.

We see purples and blues, yellows and white,

but the red ones we just can’t find.

“Amazing!” Hamilton’s eyes widened in shock,

“How weird that must be to see.”

“We see red as grey, and to me I must say,

a grey flower doesn’t sound good to me.”

“So tell me Bee Barney,
what do you do,

what do you like and enjoy?”

“I enjoy eating sweets,
I could do it all day,

I just love eating pollen.
Oh boy!”
