It was a very hot day and suddenly, through the air, with a humming and
buzzing, came a little brown cloud.
People stared and somebody cried, “Why, it is a swarm of bees!"
The second moment, the leader of the swarm had settled on a branch and at
once, the others followed, clinging first to their leader and then to each other.
Ten thousand bees which had moved out of their old hive, where they had been
born, to find a new home. Why had the bees left their old home?
The fact that it was becoming too crowded. Everyday during the spring,
hundreds of bees had been born in the old hive, and soon it was far too small
to hold them in comfort. At last, a queen bee managed to push her way out,
and with her ten thousand ordinary bees following her, set off to find
somewhere else to live.
Almost as soon as they had settled in the branches, along came the bee keeper
and gently swept the whole swarm into a white sheet and carried it off to a
new hive.
The moment they entered their new home the little creatures started work.
Some went round the hive cleaning up and pushing outside any rubbish they
found. Others stood on guard, stinging to death any strange bee which tried to
enter
Many of the bees started, at once, on the most important work of all, building
the wax cells in which the queen bee would lay eggs.
The wax came from the bodies of the bees and they chewed it to make it soft
so that the builder bees could shape it into cells which we call honey-comb.
They build downwards not upwards from the ground as we do. As soon as some
cells were ready, the queen bee began to lay her eggs, dropping one into each
cell. She never stopped laying and the servant bees looked after her day and
night, feeding her and keeping her clean.
In a few days, the eggs were hatched and little white grubs appeared. Bee
nurses looked after them, feeding them with bee - milk made from honey
