Zoom & Magnify Study Photos

Picture

Take a close look at tiny young larvae and glistening white larger larvae in the open brood cells.
Son (Paul)'s nice-looking queen in his Georgia hive.  She's surrounded by attendants.  A couple of the attendants are sharing some nectar (upper left).
Workers, cleaning surface and sharing nectar or honey residue.

This golden queen was easy to spot... also some larvae in the open cells.
Take a closer look at the bee sipping nectar from the lavender blossom of the Golden Dewdrop.

Colorful stores of pollen and glistening white  larvae...plus a new drone (male bee) emerging.
Yes, you can see (with the naked eye... bifocals help some of us) mites riding the back of your bees.
Lots of eggs... easier to spot on the black plastic foundation.

Look closely and you can see multiple eggs in the cells... indicative of a laying worker.
All lined up along the broken burr comb, tongues (proboscis) extended to suck up the sweet honey on the tops of the frames.
Bee collecting nectar from a flower at ECHO.

Licking sticky soda residue from neck of soda bottle.
Nice frame of brood.  See if you can find the eggs (central area of open cells, just below the two bees with their heads in the cells.
Wild (feral) colony (open-air nest/hive) in a tree.

Forager honeybee licking up some honey from finger tip while working in the bees.

Look for grains of pollen clinging to the tiny hairs which cover the bee in this public domain image of a honey bee.
