Pollen primarily sticks to the bee's legs and body, particularly the fuzzy hairs on their thorax and hind legs. Many bee species have specialized structures called pollen baskets or corbiculae on their hind legs that help collect and transport pollen back to their hive. This adaptation allows bees to efficiently gather pollen while foraging for nectar.
