Busy one (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

'busy one' is the definition.
(proverbially busy insect)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for bee that I've seen before include "In one's bonnet, it's a persistent idea" , "queen, perhaps" , "Social gathering" , "Hive insect" , "Honey-making insect" .)

I've seen this clue in the Penny Press and The New York Times.
