Jul 7, 2008 - This a wonderful, education video. Of great use to a homeschool family. The bee has a Wonderful Designer. We can learn many lessons from them; for one, they work wonderfully together.

Jul 7, 2008 - I am very interested in becoming a beekeeper (for a hobby) and have learned alot but was wondering approximatly how much would it cost to start a hive (bees included) thanks!

Jul 7, 2008 - I agree. You could say they are a perfect example of how some businesses should be run, with the queen as 'the 'boss', the drones as 'the supervisors' and the workers as 'the workforce'! All working together as a team. lol They're fantastic little things

Jul 7, 2008 - How sad is it that I learned more in this nine and a half minute vid then a hour to two hour class of regular public school?

Jul 7, 2008 - Funny! Drones are actually just there to help procreate. They have no power, they do no work-- and are basically "kicked out" of the hive when winter hits....because the workers want to save the accumulated food for themselves and the Queen. They are deemed "replaceable"--"expendable". Even the Queen has no real power. Yes...she keeps the hive alive by laying eggs--but when she gets old, the workers make a few of her eggs into Queen cells.This is the ultimate business. The workers run it

Jul 7, 2008 - Wonderful video. If you know someone in your local Agricultural Extension--email it to them. Alot of Extensions have free beekeeping classes. This video would be wonderful for people seriously interested in amateur beekeeping! ;)

chrislovesjoeemery Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - All bees are different. Each hive has it's own personality. Provoking a hive could be just walking in front of it. The guard bees are on the watch for anyone (anything) that could disrupt their hive. If you eat a banana--that is threatening. Their alarm pheromone smells like banana. If you have been around a dog (petting them, having them touch your clothing)--that is threatening. They know that the musk smell of dogs means danger. If you wear dark clothing...they don't like it...etc.

Mancag3 Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - This is why we need to save the bees.

Jul 7, 2008 - "Rachel Carson's Silent Spring (1962) exposed the destruction of wildlifethrough the widespread use of pesticides, and the ensuing decades have beencharacterized by continued identification of both natural and man-madehazards and consequent efforts to minimize risk."
