It
 is really interesting. He will watch them until they take flight, then a 
quick
 snap and no more bee. They must taste sweet or something. Our previous
 shepherd did the same thing (but she was better at it). Don't know why they
 don't get stung in the mouth.

You're dog must be awfully good at catching them right!! My mother is a vet, 
and subsequently, I spent most of my life in an animal clinic. We used to see 
quite a few dogs during the summer that didn't fare as well. Their whole face 
swells up when they get stung in the mouth. It's really quite sad. But...I 
also had a Shepherd who did the same thing and he never got stung either. Go 
figure!
