The bug
Bees always stop their animations when standing still, even if they're still flying in the air. This looks a bit weird, as the bee is hovering over the ground while not doing any flying animation.
To reproduce
Spawn many bees
Hold a flower in the hand
→ ❌ At some point, a bee will stop flying mid-air and stop its animation
If this didn't happen first try, you can walk around, let the bees follow you, and try again.

I've also made this ticket more general, to also include all situations where the bee is just standing still in mid-air.
Can confirm; it seems like their animation just stops whenever they're not moving at all, similar to MC-159517.
I've edited the ticket a bit in order to include a bit more detail. I hope you're fine with that.
