Download or read book Life Cycle of Bees written by Aminah McCloud and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2023-02-11 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The egg, larva, pupal, and adult phases of the honey bee life cycle are separated into these four categories. Initial Stage: The Egg Stage The only bee capable of producing between 2,000 and 3,000 eggs in a single day is the queen bee. By the third day, the egg has shifted to an upright position before falling. In addition to fertilised eggs, the queen bee also lays unfertilized eggs. Queen bees or female bees develop from the fertilised egg. Male bees, sometimes known as drone bees, are created when the unfertilized egg hatches. Phase 2: The Larval Phase Three days after the egg turns into a larva and six days after the egg is deposited in the beehive, a worker bee may be distinguished from the queen bee. During their first three days as larvae, the "royal jelly" is provided to all the larvae, including the female bees, the workers, and the drone bees. During this phase, the larva sheds its skin several times. The female larvae, which develop into a queen bee, are the only ones afterwards given royal jelly. To protect and aid in the larvae's development into a pupa, the worker bees seal the top of the cell with beeswax. Phase 3, known as the pupal stage, is when the bee has acquired wings, eyes, legs, and little body hair, giving it a look that is very similar to that of an adult bee. The emerging adult bee chews its way out of the closed-cell after the pupa has reached adulthood in stage four. From the egg stage until adulthood, the queen bee takes 16 days. Drone bees grow into adult bees in 24 days, whereas worker bees need 18 to 22 days to reach full development. Conclusion The pollination process is mostly made possible by honey bees. When pollinating, honey bees may fly at a speed of around 20 mph, while returning to the beehive with nectar they have collected at a speed of about 17 mph. The pollination process is more effective and efficient as a whole because of this precise reason. One of the tastiest dietary ingredients, bee, wouldn't be available to us for a very long time without honey bees sharing pollen.

Download or read book The Lives of Bees written by Thomas D. Seeley and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2019-05-28 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seeley, a world authority on honey bees, sheds light on why wild honey bees are still thriving while those living in managed colonies are in crisis. Drawing on the latest science as well as insights from his own pioneering fieldwork, he describes in extraordinary detail how honey bees live in nature and shows how this differs significantly from their lives under the management of beekeepers. Seeley presents an entirely new approach to beekeeping--Darwinian Beekeeping--which enables honey bees to use the toolkit of survival skills their species has acquired over the past thirty million years, and to evolve solutions to the new challenges they face today. He shows beekeepers how to use the principles of natural selection to guide their practices, and he offers a new vision of how beekeeping can better align with the natural habits of honey bees.

Download or read book Honeybee Democracy written by Thomas D. Seeley and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2010-09-20 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How honeybees make collective decisions—and what we can learn from this amazing democratic process Honeybees make decisions collectively—and democratically. Every year, faced with the life-or-death problem of choosing and traveling to a new home, honeybees stake everything on a process that includes collective fact-finding, vigorous debate, and consensus building. In fact, as world-renowned animal behaviorist Thomas Seeley reveals, these incredible insects have much to teach us when it comes to collective wisdom and effective decision making. A remarkable and richly illustrated account of scientific discovery, Honeybee Democracy brings together, for the first time, decades of Seeley's pioneering research to tell the amazing story of house hunting and democratic debate among the honeybees. In the late spring and early summer, as a bee colony becomes overcrowded, a third of the hive stays behind and rears a new queen, while a swarm of thousands departs with the old queen to produce a daughter colony. Seeley describes how these bees evaluate potential nest sites, advertise their discoveries to one another, engage in open deliberation, choose a final site, and navigate together—as a swirling cloud of bees—to their new home. Seeley investigates how evolution has honed the decision-making methods of honeybees over millions of years, and he considers similarities between the ways that bee swarms and primate brains process information. He concludes that what works well for bees can also work well for people: any decision-making group should consist of individuals with shared interests and mutual respect, a leader's influence should be minimized, debate should be relied upon, diverse solutions should be sought, and the majority should be counted on for a dependable resolution. An impressive exploration of animal behavior, Honeybee Democracy shows that decision-making groups, whether honeybee or human, can be smarter than even the smartest individuals in them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the heart of every bee hive is a queen bee. Since her well-being is linked to the well-being of the entire colony, the ability to find her among the residents of the hive is an essential beekeeping skill. In QueenSpotting, experienced beekeeper and professional “swarm catcher” Hilary Kearney challenges readers to “spot the queen” with 48 fold-out visual puzzles — vivid up-close photos of the queen hidden among her many subjects. QueenSpotting celebrates the unique, fascinating life of the queen bee and chronicles royal hive happenings such as The Virgin Death Match, The Nuptual Flight — when the queen mates with a cloud of male drones high in the air — and the dramatic Exodus of the Swarm from the hive. Readers will thrill at Kearney’s adventures in capturing these swarms from the strange places they settle, including a Jet Ski, a couch, a speed boat, and an owl’s nesting box. Fascinating, fun, and instructive, backyard beekeepers and nature lovers alike will find reason to return to the pages again and again.
