Find out more about #bees - Things worth knowing Humans have kept honey bees as productive animals for millennia. They are an important part of cultural landscapes to the present day. Here are six amazing facts: - The queen is the most important animal in any honeybee colony. She lays up to 2,000 eggs daily and has a lifespan of 1 – 5 years. - Up to 60,000 female worker bees perform care and supply tasks in the beehive. Their summer life expectancy is about 3 – 6 weeks. - Several hundred drones live only during the summer months, and serve only to mate with the queen. - Bees are regarded as one of the most important pollinators of our plants worldwide. They carry out truly astounding feats: For example, they have to fly to about 2 million flowers to produce half a kilogram of honey. And this with a lifespan of only 3 to 6 weeks in the summertime!. - A bee’s eye reacts about four times more quickly than the human eye. Did you ever vainly attempt to catch a house fly? Their eyes function similarly to those of honeybees. For this reason, insects are usually just a bit too fast for us. - Like us humans, European bee species also have considerable variations in their dance, which are also referred to as the “dialects” of the bee language. #beesofinstagram #nature #insect #pollen #eathealthy #healthyfood #fitfood #healthychoice #agriculture #harvesting #raisedbeds #instafarm #farming #farmlife #crops #science #chemistry #biology #scientist #agameoftones #artofvisuals #visualsoflife #justgoshoot #liveauthentic #thecreatorclass #peoplescreatives
