Apiary insect (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bee

'apiary insect' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for bee that I've seen before include "Flying insect (often busy)" , "Creator of honey" , "Honey producer" , "Honey generator" , "Social gathering" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal and The Washington Post.
