For you, I am drawing a card from the pathfinders deck, because you share so many photos of different animals.
The first thing that comes to mind for Bee is the whole busy bee thing, but I really don't think that cliche is your message. Bees wander where they will, enjoying the flowers along the way, and bring back their harvest to make sweet honey. They care for each other, and share what they've learned about where the best flowers are in little dances, so their friends and co-workers can enjoy the same experiences that they did.
This seems to be very like you, always sharing the little joys you find whether it's photos, someone else's art, or your own art or fiction. I think that Bee is telling you that seeking out the sweetness and brightness in the world and transforming it into something nourishing and delightful is an important component of your creative process (and also an important support of your creativity and health), and that doing those things should never be discounted as unimportant or frivolous. Those things are just as fundamentally vital to you and yours as flowers and honey are to a bee hive.
And though you may never see it, your actions make a bigger difference too. The honeybee may not know that when they dance for joy and sip the sweet nectar in a flower, they are fertilizing it so the plant can produce fruit and seeds, but many others depend on that process so they can eat and, in turn, find joy in the world and spread that joy in whatever ways they do that--but at the minimum, helping to spread the seeds so that every year there will be a new generation of the flowers that the bees depend on.
