Observations On What Happy Bees Are Foraging
Nurse bees and the Queen on a frame of brood. The queen always has "attendants". They appear as admirers, often encircling the queen and tending to her every need. Can you spot the queen?
Inside the Hive, Foragers In Action, and more
Did you know? Male bees, called "drones", like this one, don't have stingers. They are considerably bigger than the female worker bees, and thus are easy to single out in a typical hive of 30,000 to 40,000 bees.
Bee Behavior, Honey/Wax/Pollen, and more
Happy Bees telling us they love our community of Golden Hill. All-natural honeycomb built by the girls from scratch -- our preferred method: 100% pure beeswax.
