Description
The inside of a bee hive is fascinating. Honey bees (Apis) are social insects and live in colonies, They construct multiple honeycombs in cavities which has helped make it possible to domesticate them. The honeycombs are made up of innumerable hexagonal wax cells, built by the bees to house their larvae, pollen, and honey. This comb will be pulled from the hive when it is time to extract the honey in about a month.
