When did Stonewall Jackson get his nickname?

It was at the First Battle of Bull Run, when Brigadier-General Barnard Bee shouted "There is Jackson standing like a stone wall!" It is possible that this was meant as a criticism - that Jackson was slow in coming across to help Bee's brigade. But Southerners prefer to think that it was meant as a compliment to Jackson's stout defence of his position, and Bee is supposed to have added "Rally behind the Virginians!" As Bee was mortally wounded later that day, no-one was able to ask him which version was correct.


Who gave General Stonewall Jackson the nickname of Stonewall at the Battle of the First Bull Run?

It was a Confederate officer, Brigadier-General Barnard Bee at Bull Run (Manassas), the war's first major battle. He is known to have shouted "There is Jackson standing like a stone wall!", and then supposedly added "Rally behind the Virginians!" That is the favorable interpretation of the nickname - praising Jackson for holding his position at a bad moment in the battle. Others have claimed that he was criticizing Jackson for not coming across to help Bee's own brigade. At any rate, Bee was mortally wounded later the same day, so nobody was able to ask him which version he meant!

How big is a Dawson's bee?

The Dawson's bee can grow up to 2.5 cm, or 1 inch, in length. Sizes vary according to the ecology where different colonies are found. The Dawson's bee is a unique burrowing bee found only in isolated areas of Western Australia's outback. One of the largest bees in the world, the male is built for fighting and can grow to the same size as females, which is very rare in the insect world. These males fight over the females, and literally kill each other in a bee civil war that leaves only the females alive until the next generation of young bees emerge from their burrows.
