.and the spangram was BUMBLEBEE.Strands #403“What's the buzz?”🟡🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵Hi Strands fans.
A nice and easy one today. The word "buzz" always makes me think of insects, and I instantly connected BUMBLEBEE along the bottom of the board.At first, I thought it was just another answer rather than the spangram, but when "hornet" failed, I realized it was actually the anchor of the game.
That made the puzzle a bit more simple, and I began looking for parts of the bee.I first found WINGS along the right-hand side, followed by THORAX on the left. ANETENNAE was above both, going from the top left to the top-right corner.
STINGER came next, just above the spangram in the bottom left, and TONGUE was on the opposite side. That just left ABDOMEN to unpick in the middle to complete the puzzle.Yesterday's Strands answersReading this in a later time zone?
