Seems odd. Was it a honeybee or a bumblebee? Or could it have been a wasp; people confuse them regularly.
Definitely bee I saw it and heard it and my husband removed the sting and part of the sac. No perfume I'm allergic to perfumes and just recovering from my hairdresser spraying with me with water with perfume in it 4 weeks ago and staying well clear of perfume. Dark clothes not freshly washed plus if it had been a bumblebee I'd be in hospital now.Only honey bee has a barbed sting which gets left behind plus I was only stung once and it was caught in my hair, a wasp would have stung repeatably ( been there done that!).Just very surprised that it was so aggressive. My plot neighbour has hives but they are some distance away.
And they're back I can't work on my plot now without being attacked by a group of bees. As I'm less than 15 ft from the beekeepers hives I don't have a chance really. Written strong letter to town council.
rape is in flower and we have bees in the village that make a beeline for the rape, several fields away. Anyone in their path risks getting stung
