Three Things About Bees

1. The queen bee gets pregnant by drone bee's that have no actual purpose but to mate with the queen bee. The queen bee can live up to 3 years.

2. Worker bee's are the ones who go on pollen runs and bring it back to the hive. They also are the ones who will give their lives to protect the hive and their queen.

3. When the queen bee and the drone are mating they have to do their business in the sky. Shortly after words the poor little drone bee is dead from exhaustion.
