winter?.To learn more about bees click on the following

Honeybee Facts• It is the only insect that produces food eaten by man.
Honey is the only food that includes all the substances necessary to sustain life, including enzymes, vitamins, minerals, and water.
• The honey bee's wings stroke 11,400 times per minute, thus making their distinctive buzz.
• A honey bee can fly for up to six miles, and as fast as 22 miles per hour; it has to fly 90,000 miles - three times around the globe - to make one pound of honey (16 ounces).
![Page 41: BUSY BUZZY BEES By Kim Scott. A sample bee hive. There are approximately 3000 bees in here!](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062401/5a4d1b707f8b9ab0599b50cf/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Drones are male. They only live a few weeks.
Do not work and are fed by worker bees. Their only function is to breed with queens.
They cannot sting. The colony “kills” all drones before winter.
The queen lives for about 2-3 years and is the only bee that lays haploid (male) or diploid (female) eggs. She
lays up to 2500 eggs per day; 200,000 per growing season.
She can sting

*THE AVERAGE HONEY BEE WILL ACTUALLY MAKE ONLY ONE TWELFTH OF A TEASPOON OF HONEY IN ITS LIFETIME.
*IT TAKES ABOUT 556 WORKERS TO GATHER 1 POUND OF HONEY FROM ABOUT 2 MILLION FLOWERS.
*IT TAKES ONE OUNCE OF HONEY TO FUEL A BEE’S FLIGHT AROUND THE WORLD.

*A honey bee visits 50 to 100 flowers during a collection trip.
*A colony of bees consists of 20,000-60,000 honeybees and one queen at any one time, and can produce in
excess of 200 lbs. of honey per year.
*Worker honey bees are female, live 6 to 8 weeks and do all the work. They can sting.
1100 stings are fatal in most mammals.
