'''Bee Banjo''' is a special, unique transformation that appears in both ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]'' and ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]''.

==[[Banjo-Kazooie]]==

In ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]'', the Bumble Bee (or Bee as it is called in the game) is the transformation of [[Click Clock Wood]], as well as the most expensive one in the game (costing a whopping twenty-five [[Mumbo Token]]s to perform). Its value lies in its ability to fly by pressing {{A}} in mid-jump, without requiring the use of [[Red Feathers]] or a [[Flight Pad]].

When flying, the player can press {{A}} to fly higher and hold {{B}} to fly faster. When the Bee enters water though, it will immediately fly automatically. The Bee is also immune to the thicket area surrounding [[Mumbo's Skull]] and to the [[Snarebear]]s; however, the transformation is only usable in Spring (as [[Mumbo Jumbo]] has various excuses in the other seasons). Interestingly enough, cheat codes have proven that Bee Banjo can walk on the quicksand of [[Gobi's Valley]] and the murky waters of [[Bubblegloop Swamp]], but not on [[Freezeezy Peak]]'s ice water. A possible explanation is simply because of the different settings of ice water as opposed to quicksand. As you'll stand in a bottom of water, rather than walking on top of the sand.

==[[Banjo-Tooie]]==

In ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]'', the Bee is the native transformation of [[Cloud Cuckooland]]. In addition to its flight abilities introduced in ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]'', it can now fire stingers at enemies using {{Z}} (with {{C-up}} to aim). When flying, you can fire at a much faster rate than when standing. Stingers do similar damage to [[Blue Eggs]] and are the only way to destroy the [[Eyeballus Jiggium Plant]]s. The Bee will also leave an animation trail of blue sparks when flying faster.

The Bee is the only way to reach and enter [[The Zubba's Nest]] and complete the mini-game to earn a [[Jiggy]] ([[Banjo]] and [[Kazooie]] are unable to enter because only bees are allowed inside).
