Unfortunately, as an adult, my first reaction to a “buzz” is to run, while swinging my arms around wildly.

That's a good way of coaxing them into stinging. The sudden movements catch their eye. Slow, calm and deliberate...not so much. That attitude can be tough to keep up when getting stung, I know. Even if getting away from a hive, running isn't advised. Walking steadily away, weaving one's way through a grove of trees can be helpful, though once agitated there can be one or two jack-ass bees who simply won't stop until squashed, even if one retreats some twenty to thirty yards away. Flailing at them...usually just makes it worse.

Can't help it. It's a natural reaction...although I've never been attacked by a hive.

It is always the 1 bee buzzing around me.
