Close-up of honey bees (Apis mellifera)
Honey bees. Close-up of honey bees (Apis mellifera). Most honey bees are workers which construct, maintain and defend the nest, take care of the larvae and gather food. Bees eat pollen, nectar and honey. The workers produce honey, a rich sugar solution used to feed the young, by converting ingested nectar in special sacs in their gut. Honey bees originated in southern Asia, but they have now been introduced throughout the world. They are highly social insects and are kept by humans for their honey which they store in honeycomb, hexagonal cells of secreted wax.
