General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
Image: Image is freely licensed, used in the article, and clear at 100px.
QPQ: Done.

Overall: Thank you Whispyhistory and Philafrenzy. No problem with this one. All the ALTs are fine, but I would suggest using just the cartoon bee picture for all four (or rather any of the four) and not the poster, which is not striking enough to work at DYK.
