Bees are some of the most hardworking animals ever. In their colony, they each have a role to fulfill. Together, they make the sweetest honey. They play a vital role in ensuring our plants grow.

Freelance Bee caretaker here.. ... once or twice a week high up in the mountains of Santa Susana, Chatsworth/Simi valley area - ..i feed bees bowls of sugar water - the same exact 25% consistency as hummingbird food - Wow 💥 - you would be surprised to see how many bees show up within a few minutes....Wow 💥.. seems like the whole hive shows up...😏 ...even on cold winter mornings - upper 40s - mid 50s... they still love their sugar water 🐝
Fascinating facts❤
Love this
I had bumblebees visit my garden last year. They were out everyday as long as my sunflowers were blooming and even one or two would sleep on it overnight. Me and the bees had a connection though, I would rub him/her and tell it goodnight/Goodrising. I hope to see them again this year❤
That's very sweet! I hope your bumblebees return
Someone biting a comb of bee Worker bee:bro why is there a gap in our old kitchen
Love the bees save the bees 😊
Bees are so intresting species
We can't see red and we love a cup of coffee in the mornings
this is great thank you -- but the images change too quickly for my taste. It would be more relaxing if there were fewer switches to new "scenes" or photos. And we could absorb more info that way too. Thank you! Very informative and helpful.
Slow down the video
Bees is nice 👍👍
Carpenter bees are the only ones that can pollinate? I’m confused. I would love if someone can clear up my confusion.
They aren't, it's just a wrong statement. Every bee pollinates!
Possibly they meant to have said can’t instead of can this is probably made by AI bs
Yeah I just heard that they are super-pollinators. I wish I could keep them away from my house. 😢
Small correction on information. BUMBLEbees can keep stinging and do not die and don't loose their stingers. They are less aggressive. HONEYbees are the ones that loose their stinger and die after stinging you. HONEYbees are more aggressive
What's the purpose of the stinger?
idk to protect them selfs?
Whose here because of " The beekeeper "
9:02 “The only bee species that can pollinate are carpenters” doesn’t make sense ?
9:00 Doesn't seem right
In awe🎉
A like bee 1:00 😂
