The Hive and the Honey Bee, the âBibleâ of beekeeping, indicates that a beeâs flight speed averages about 15 miles per hour and theyâre capable of flying 20 miles per hour.e captured these photos today of a honey bee nectaring on catmint (genus Nepeta). The bee was moving fast. To blur the wings, we set the shutter speed at 1/640 of a second with an f-stop of 13 and IS0 of 800.
