Honey Bee : Social Insect (Rev, 1978)

The film explores the life and social structure of honeybees, highlighting their importance as pollinators and their complex hive dynamics. Honeybees live in colonies of about 60,000 individuals, with a queen responsible for laying eggs, while worker bees perform various tasks such as nursing larvae, building combs, guarding the hive, and foraging for nectar and pollen. The film details the roles of male drones, the process of metamorphosis from egg to adult, and the phenomenon of swarming when a new queen emerges. It emphasizes the critical role honeybees play in the ecosystem and agriculture through pollination.
