Bees visit between 50 and 100 flowers during one collection flight.
Did you know?..
Bees talk to each other by doing a little dance. They do a figure-of-eight movement at the door of the hive known as the ‘Waggle Dance’, which directs other bees to a good source of nectar.

Planting a Bee-Garden
As the days get longer and (slightly) warmer, it’s a great time to get outside and start pottering around in the garden. Bees agree too – as things heat up, honey bees will leave their winter-cluster (they don’t hibernate, but all snuggle up in a big ball and shiver to keep each other warm, surviving on stockpiled honey) and begin buzzing around in the outside world again.
