Coincidence - we like flowers, and admire bees. So we appreciate that bees are attracted to beauty.

Replace bees with flies, and flowers with manure (or plants that seek to attract flies http://waynesword.palomar.edu/ww0602.htm).

Where's the objective beauty?

There is something more than that. There are many beautiful things, but flowers in particular seem to stand out as something that is recognized for their beauty regardless of culture, time or place. In the same way that people the world over, independent of one another, come up with the same conclusions about geometry and mathematics...

But not regardless of species. That both bees and humans find flowers beautiful is coincidence. That humans are similar to other humans in a way that crosses cultures is obvious to most.
