Did you know?
- There are up to 50,000 bees in a colony in the summer
- Most bees are female
- A bee will visit over 1500 flowers for one load of pollen
- Each bee will fly about 800km in her 3 week lifetime
- Bees are covered in tiny hairs, which help spread the pollen from the flower to help new flowers grow
- Bees are 100 times more sensitive to the smell of flowers than humans
- The foraging bees do a "Waggle dance" to tell bees in their hive exactly where flowers are
- About a third of the world's food supply depends on pollinating insects like honeybees
