Flowers can be pollinated by all sort of insects. Here I will mainly concentrate on the European bees.
Generally a worker bee is either looking for pollen or nectar, but rarely searching for both at the same time.
The bee walks on the surface of the flower where the stamina are, she takes the pollen with her mandibles, making a small
ball which she then carries with her front legs in a basket that looks alike in shape to the one in her back legs.
If there are many stamina open, with much pollen, the bee will then collect it with the brushes that adorn her back legs.
