🐝 Old bees don’t return to the hive at night. They spend the night on flowers, and if they get the chance to see another sunrise, they resume their activities by bringing pollen or nectar back to the colony. They do this sensing that the end is near. No bee expects to die in the hive so as not to burden others.

🐝🐝🐝 Bees have cold blood like all insects, but at the colony level, they form a warm mega-organism.

🐝🐝🐝 There are bees that bring pollen and others that bring nectar. Never will a pollen-collecting bee change its task to bring nectar, and vice versa.

🐝🐝🐝 Even though dandelions are yellow, their pollen collected by bees becomes orange in the mixing urn with nectar.

🐝🐝🐝 The record for keeping a bee colony alive during winter is 356 days without them going out to clean the flights.

🐝🐝🐝 Bees can be useful to humans even after they die, as they are used to treat joint pain.

🐝🐝🐝 And finally, did you know that bees never sleep? Thank you my little blessed bees!!! 🐝❤️
