Bees are very small insects but they are strong. They live together in the beehive and have hexagonal rooms.
Bees are not lazy but are active. They all have the same mother called the ‘queen bee’. They fly to collect honey from flower to flower. Bees have to visit 40,000 flowers to gather one gram of honey. If a family of bees move they fly together.
They collect honey before winter and the rainy seasons. People use honey as a medicine. Honey is very sweet and people like to eat it with bread.
We should protect bees.
