Well, the first expansion is that those nasty actors--that look a lot like
honey bees--are WASPS, not bees.
The vast majority of so-called 'bee stings' are, in fact, caused by these
VERY aggressive wasps.

This is interesting to me too, because a lot of the "volunteers," bee-wise
I've seen in Manhattan have usually been "yellow jackets" hovering near
garbage cans or suddenly descending on a kid's Popsicle.
Please share your sources, this is fascinating.
Thanking you in advance, looking forward to expanding my etymological
knowledge.
