Description
This honey bee was gathering nectar from a yellow sedum flower in my garden one evening. I'm always fascinated with honey bees as they work so diligently and return to their hive to make that glorious, sweet honey! My father was a bee keeper when I was young, and I have very fond memories of helping him extract the honey to put into jars, and the wonderful smell of the fresh honey. A wonderful childhood memory! Perhaps this image will bring a similar happy memory or feeling when you view it.
Honey bees represent only a small fraction of the roughly 20,000 known species of bees. Some other types of related bees produce and store honey, but only members of the genus Apis are true honey bees. The study of honey bees is known as melittology.
