  • About Honey bees:
  • Honeybees are attracted to flowers.  
  • Honey bees live in a beehive, which is commonly used to describe the nest of any bee colony.

    • Queen Bee: Every beehive has one Queen Bee that lays eggs.

    • Worker Bee: Most of the bees in the hive are worker bees. These bees work all day. They make the hive and also look after the baby bees. They fly around flowers in search of nectar. The worker bees are very important for the hive. Without worker bees, there would be neither a hive nor any nectar collection.
  • When one bee finds flowers with nectar, it does a special kind of dance by which the other bees can know where the nectar is. 
  • Honey bees play a very important role in the pollination of flowers like the Litchi, coffee, and cocoa flower.

  • Beekeeping is the maintenance of bee colonies, commonly in man-made hives, by humans. 
  • A beekeeper keeps bees in order to collect their honey and other products that the hive produces.
  • The purpose of beekeeping includes products like beeswax, honey, bee pollen, and roय्रिस्टyal jelly.
  • Beekeeping is also done for pollination of crops, or to produce bees for sale to other beekeepers.
  • A location where bees are kept is called an apiary or "bee yard".
