Where Link finds it
The Good Bee waits in a cave at Lake Hylia. It is not there while any bottle holds a Good Bee. When it comes out, it flies as a Good Bee.
It wakes when Link dashes with the Pegasus Shoes and bumps into the wall right by it.

In a bottle
Only the Bug Catching Net catches it.
When Link catches it, the game asks whether to keep it in a bottle or set it free. Kept, it goes into the first empty bottle. With no empty bottle, Link has to set it free.
Using the bottle lets it out to fly again, and the bottle is empty once more.
A Good Bee let out stays golden: caught again, it goes back in as a Good Bee.
Let out of a bottle, it flies after the enemies on its floor and hits each one as hard as the Fighter's Sword. After 20 hits it stops, flies off the screen, and is gone. Until then, Link can catch it again.
On the item screen, a bottle holding it is called Good Bee.
Who buys it
The Good Bee. Let it out of its bottle and it flies to him; he buys it with five Red Rupees, 100 Rupees in all, every time. A common bee does not fly to him.
