The Busy Life of a Bee
Bees are some of the hardest working creatures in the animal kingdom. They spend their days flying from flower to flower, collecting nectar to bring back to their hives. But did you know that bees also have a special job to do when they visit flowers?
What is Nectar?
Nectar is a sweet, yummy liquid that flowers produce to attract bees and other pollinators. Bees love nectar because it gives them energy to fly and do their important work.
Six Flowers, So Much Fun!
Imagine having to visit six different flowers in one day! That's a lot of flying and collecting. But bees are up for the challenge. They use their special bee vision to spot the flowers and their long tongues to drink up the nectar.
