Nature's Genius: Why Bees Choose Hexagons! 🐝 Hexagonal honeycombs are a remarkable example of efficiency in design. Bees craft these six-sided wonders to save space, resources and maintain the perfect hive environment.

See all those little grains of rice? Those are little bee eggs, which turn into larvae after 3 days, and eventually an emerging bee after 21 days. Great shot from @the_beecharmers. ----- #honeycrate #myhoneycrate #subbox #subscription #subscriptionbox #monthlysubscription #beefact #beefacts #honeybox #beebox #bees #honeybee #beeegg #larvae #newbee #babybees #repost #tweet

Bee honeycombs are in a hexagonal pattern. Surely there are shapes that are easier for bees top make, so why are they so insistent on them being hexagonal shaped? Well, the answer is in that video ;)

Bee fact

Bees have 5 eyes.

Bumblebees done die when they sting! That's just a honey bee thing. Male bumblebees dont even have a stinger at all, and female bumblebees aren't very aggressive, so unless you go barging into their nest, you're likely safe!

[fuzzy-little-bumblebee]

Bumblebees flap their wings 200 times per second!!! That's similar to the RPM of some motorcycle engines!!
