Honeybees

This isn't as sharp as I wanted it but holding a frame of bees with one hand and photographing it was a bit more difficult and I thought!!

These are worker bees ( nursery bees) looking after the lava which you can just make out in the cells.

Worker

There are a number of important tasks that must be taken care of to ensure the smoothing running of a hive. Workers form the bulk of the bee colony's population, and they are well named - they do the work. As a result, worker life spans are shorter. During foraging season, workers only live 4-6 weeks.
