Worker bees cooperate to find food and use a pattern of "dancing" (known as the bee dance or waggle dance) to communicate information regarding resources with each other; this dance varies from species to species, but all living species of Apis exhibit some form of the behavior. If the resources are very close to the hive, they may also exhibit a less specific dance commonly known as the "round dance". Honey bees appear to have their center of origin in South and Southeast Asia (including the Philippines), as all the extant species except Apis mellifera are native to that region. Notably, living representatives of the earliest lineages to diverge ( Apis florea and Apis andreniformis) have their center of origin there. [2] Under ordinary circumstances the death (or removal) of a queen increases reproduction in workers, and a significant proportion of workers will have active ovaries in the absence of a queen. The workers of the hive produce a last batch of drones before the hive eventually collapses. Although during this period worker policing is usually absent, in certain groups of bees it continues.

Honey bees are fab flyers. They fly at a speed of around 25km per hour and beat their wings 200 times per second!

Types of British bees and how to identify them

Each bee has 170 odorant receptors, which means they have one serious sense of smell! They use this to communicate within the hive and to recognise different types of flowers when looking for food.

Human changes in land use and more intensified agricultural practices are destroying bees habitats and reducing the diversity of wild flowers which bees feed on. It is becoming more common that fields only contain one type of crop rather than a variety of wildflowers, which would have provided nectar for bees food. Cursing is not tolerated.
