Honeybee waggle dancing is so freaken cute! I once saw a bunch of bees in a display case at a museum with one worker waggling her heart out. None of the other bees were even paying attention! I guess they already knew about the food source and she shouldn't have bothered to dance.

The waggle dance was discovered by German Nobel Laureate Karl von Frisch. He also proved that bees orient themselves by atmospheric polarized light.

Honeybees aren't like Wasps/Hornets or Bumblebees, they don't have time for stinging people, they're very hard working & amazing insects as the video describes.

Yeah, I agree jonusvorhees. I have never in my life seen a honey bee get aggressive. If they do, it's very, very rare.
Bees also have ... ( 2 months ago by cameronpahl)
Bees also have developed a method of telling other bees how much ketchup they should bring back to the hive, because it is one of their favorite foods. In fact before it was discovered that they made honey, honeybees were known as "ketchup flies" or "ketchup bees." Young boys on the Oregon Trail would keep these insects as pets because they were easy to take care of, only requiring a little bit of mashed tomatoes to keep them going for a few days. Way easier to take care of than a dog.

yea thats soo true! i have a hive of my own and they are completly harmless, i have them land on me in the summer time and they bask in the sun and i let them crawl on my hands, they are way to busy to sting, they know lifes valuable so its better to stay alive and work then to die by stinging. i have got stung but thats because i was opening the hive so i started the trouble by being a "predator" to them so i deserved it lol, most of the time its only one iirrate bee and then your ok .
yes and once you ... ( 1 month ago by boxa888)
yes and once you have a hive there so easy to take care of!! just give the bees a proper food source like a garden or flowers and keep pesticides away and your all set. the colony collapse disorder seems to be caused by pesticides and poisons and bayer has just got in trouble in germany for destroying 1/3 of the bee supply so pesticides and poisons are a great source of death for bees. save the honey bees!!! dont use pesticides, use natural pesticides like spiders, lady bugs, natural plant oils.
