Bees And Flowers National Honeybee Day

These are some photos that I took at the Botanical Garden of flowers and Bees. Honey bees collect pollen and nectar as food for the entire colony, and as they do, they pollinate plants. Nectar stored within their stomachs is passed from one worker to the next until the water within it diminishes. At this point, the nectar becomes honey, which workers store in the cells of the honeycomb.

 

 

Supplies Used:

BMU Asian Beauty Collection -- Butterfly

GWH Strawberry Delight Collection -- Butterfly, Bee

KME Butterfly Effect Collection -- Butterfly

SBA JIF Plus Kindred Collection -- Magnifying Glass

BMU Kensington Collection -- Magnifying Glass

BMU Heritage Collection -- Magnifying Glass

Gorgeous photos and beautifully scrapped. I used to love helping my great grandfather collect honeycomb from his beehives. I remember trying to save bees by washing them when they'd get trapped in the sticky goodness.
