Bee Banjo is a recurring transformation in the Banjo-Kazooie series.

Transformation[edit]

In its debut appearance, Banjo-Kazooie, Bee Banjo is the transformation of Click Clock Wood. Mumbo Jumbo only allows Banjo to become a bee in the spring because Mumbo has various excuses for the other seasons. If Bee Banjo enters another season or reaches certain zones, he transforms back to his usual form. In Banjo-Tooie, Bee Banjo is the transformation of Cloud Cuckooland. Banjo can only reach and enter the Zubba's Nest as a bee. Bee Banjo can earn a Jiggy in the nest by completing a mini-game.

Abilities[edit]

As a bumble bee, Banjo can fly without Red Feathers or a Flight Pad. While Bee Banjo is in midair, the player can make him fly by pressing A Button and hold B Button to make him fly faster. Bee Banjo automatically starts to fly when he hits water.

In Banjo-Kazooie, Bee Banjo cannot take damage from the Snarebears and the thicket area surrounding Mumbo's Skull.

In Banjo-Tooie, Bee Banjo can fire stingers at enemies. The player can press Z Button to make Bee Banjo fire stingers and aim with Camera up Button. Bee Banjo can fire at a much faster rate than when he is on land. Bee Banjo's stinger projectiles do not cause much damage, although it is the only way for him to defeat the Eyeballus Jiggium Plants. While flying at a fast speed, Bee Banjo leaves behind an animation trail of blue sparks.
