If you zoom into the picture, there is what looks like another eye above the big eye.... How many eyes do these things have!!

You can see the same extras eyes on my pic. It is strange because I read yesterday that bees have 2 compound eyes and 3 smaller simple eyes, so that is the answer I guess.
This pic shows them off really well
This was the page I found about bees - their antennae are pretty amazing also
