| The Bee Assassin is approximately 3/4 inch in length. They feed on a variety of insects, but are known for their selection of bees. Bee Assassins feed by inserting their beak into their victims and injecting digestive fluids. As the fluids go to work, the Bee Assassin sucks out the digested parts. |
