The Honey Bee (PW)



The Honey Bee


The Honey bee may be a small insect that looks useless, but, it does many things for humans. It pollinates flowers which in turn gives us oxygen.
There are many different species of bees which have adapted to their environments. All honey bees have stingers, and for one simple reason. They need to protect their queen and their hive.

The European honey bee can be found in many different places and has adapted by changing colors to blend into the environment.
The dwarf honey bee is very small, so it build nests. Its stingers can't actually hurt humans but, it doesn't need stingers as much because it is always by other bees.

The giant honey bee is fierce. Because people take its honey it has a large stinger. These bees are the type of bee that can hurt and can even kill people in large groups.

The honey bee can be dangerous, and harmless, but they do give back to us humans, therefore, they are one of the most important insects that there is.
