Arizona is home to these adorable honeybees that are essential to keeping our flora blooming and thriving. It's important to remember how crucial these small creatures are to preserving the beauty of Arizona's natural landscape as we find new ways to preserve their species. My little sister and I found this cute worker bee one evening. I felt that nothing represented Arizona's natural beauty better than these hardworking creatures responsible for its stunning landscape.
