The Life-cycle of the Honeybee
Most people never give a thought to the interesting and intricate life-cycle of the honey bee. They just think of the Honeybee as the honey making flying insect. The honey bee queen lays all the eggs in the beeswax combs built by worker bees.
When someone comments about a bee such as, "Oh! Look at him collecting pollen from that flower.", I like to reply, "She!" The offender gives me a funny look, thinking, "he's either weird or has incredible eyesight". Although the first thought may be true, the second isn't. It's just that almost all the bees you see are females.
Throughout her life she progresses from one job to another, although despite the old expression about being busy, they do sometimes seem to take a rest and just 'hang out'.
