RE: Bees are Man's Friend, Let's Preserve Them For The Good Of Our Ecosystems! .
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
the bees on the orange are either interested in the sweet fruit sugar or they are getting water. Yes, bees need water too. Or they get both.
Yeah, that's why the orange vendor said that they come there everyday to enjoy the orange.
This means that bees are also the most important animal for us humans, even more important than cows, pigs, chickens and fish - something that is often forgotten.
Exactly, without them we would be facing challenges in getting adequate food crops. It's really sad that these wonderful creatures are not being given maximum attention due to them
it has been found that fruit that is pollinated by bees grows more symmetrically, has a thicker skin and therefore lasts longer, contains more vitamins and the quantity increases significantly.
This is a good point to note
diligence of bees - Do you know how long a bee works per day? Ok, on average I mean - of course it depends on the stage of life. It is said to work 4 hours a day, where it does everything (brood care, cleaning, honey, pollen, propolis and water collection), then it sleeps for about 3 hours.
So why then are they reffered as busy if only they work for four hours per day?
And what does she do in the remaining 17 hours? Well, what are the girls' favourite things to do - that's right, they chat ;-) So they communicate 17 hours a day to keep the whole landing going - they've had a Facebook system running for millions of years ;-). - That's what I call efficient - they're just girls.
Hahahaha, you mean girls chat for 17hrs of the day?, no way am I going to accept that.🤣. What then do the boys do? 🙄
Well, I'm glad you acknowledged that girls are efficient so I'll let it pass, lol.
I really do appreciate your visit and wonderful contribution. They are sure enlightening.

"So why then are they reffered as busy if only they work for four hours per day"
It is simply the mass of bees that gives the impression of continuous labour. In spring and summer there are around 50000-70000 worker bees in one of my colonies. And communication takes place via round dance, tail dance, odour and vibrations on the honeycomb. It has now also been discovered that bees also communicate outside the hive by sending light signals to oncoming bees through their wings.
"...what boys do?"
They keep the girls' backs free so that they can work as efficiently as possible. No - joking aside - they are only there for one purpose - to mate with the queen. And they die in the process. And after the summer they are no longer needed and so the girls throw the remaining ones out of the hive - there is no more assisted living😉. By the way, drones don't have a stinger.
Another small note - the honeybee itself is not so threatened, it is well looked after by beekeepers all over the world. The problem is the wild bees, which are under pressure because so little is known about them and their social life.

Oh, now I understand.
This is incredible, how long have you been beekeeping?
Oh, what a pity giving their lives for bee-manity, not humanity this time around. 😂
So it's a girls world after all especially in the bee Hive 😉
Yeah, I read this about them. I guess it's because they don't live for long or maybe they don't have anything to protect in the Hive.
I do beekeeping since 15. years. It is my refugium to my job. But my grandpa and grand grand Pa has bees running, too
Wow, that's a long time. I presume you've got a wide of knowledge about bees. I haven't been opportune to visit a bee farm before. It would be a place worth visiting.
Yes, I also give courses for beginners and advanced beekeepers and also breed queens. I am also on the board of an association that deals with the 800-year cultural history of bees in the region called Zeidelwesen.
You're a master then.
Germany, right
