Hello,These are some really cool Bee facts! I hope you enjoy looking at them all! Timmy's Fun Bee Facts! # A honeybee has to travel over 55,000 miles and visits approx. 2 million flowers to make 1 pound of honey. # A honeybee can fly approximately 15 miles per hour. # Honeybees are the only insect that produce food for humans. # Honey is the ONLY food that includes all the substances necessary to sustain life, including water. # A typical beehive makes more than 400 pounds of honey per year # Approximately 7-8 pounds of honey are consumed by bees to produce 1 pound of beeswax. # Honeybees will usually travel approximately 3 miles from their hive. # A single honeybee will only produce approximately 1/12 teaspoon of honey in her lifetime. # A honeybee will flap its wings about 11,400 times per minute creating the "buzz" that you hear. # Honeybees are the only bees that die after they sting. # Honeybees are entirely herbivorous when they forage for nectar and pollen, but can cannibalize their own brood when stressed. # Honey speeds the healing process and combats infections. # Honey never spoils. # It would take about 1 ounce of honey to fuel a honeybee's flight around the world. # Honeybee colonies have unique odors that members flash like ID cards at the hive's front door, so the guard bees can recognize the entering bees. # Honeybees are responsible for approx 80% of all fruit, vegetable and seed crops in the U.S. I hope you liked reading those facts about bee's! I am moving soon! I can get more bee's in the spring time! I cant wait to move! thats all for today! your friend, Timmy { Post a Comment } { Last Page } { Page 1 of 3 } { Next Page } |
