But when they are flying around, they seem to think I'm a flower or something, because they sometimes land on me, on my hand, or fly around right in my face (I think I've even had one land on my face). If you are just still the entire time and let them walk around on you if they want, they will eventually fly away when they realize you are not a flower  .
What you really have to watch out for in the sort of situation I described above, are idiots who start trying to swat at the bee as it's flying around you, because that idiot will be the reason for your getting stung. | Ever have a yellowjacket fly into your soda can unnoticed? Ow.
