- — Butterflies and bees hovering above the Burrow lawn[src]
A bee is a flying insect closely related to wasps and ants, and are known for their role in pollination and for producing honey and beeswax.[4]
History[]
The Weasley family kept beehives in a small forestal area in Ottery St Catchpole, by The Burrow.[5] The packaging of Fizzing Whizzbees, a Queenbee sweet, contains pictures of bees with human heads.[6] At one point during Harry Potter's second school year he was accused for attacking Hufflepuff student Justin Finch-Fletchley and Gryffindor House Ghost Nearly Headless Nick and was sent to the Headmaster's office. While there, he met the Sorting Hat, which asked if he had a "Bee in your [his] bonnet".[7]
On 1 August, 1997, butterflies and bees were hovering lazily over the grass and hedgerow on the property of The Burrow as the Wedding of Bill Weasley and Fleur Delacour kicked off.[8]
The Bee-Sting Jinx was a jinx that caused the target's skin to swell and turn pink, similar to the effect of a bee sting.[3]
