The Honey Bee: Amazing Insect Engineer

The beehive, home to the honeybee, is built around an iconic structure: the honeycomb. This amazing construction is a mathematically perfect matrix of hexagons that optimizes spatial coverage while minimizing the amount of construction material required for building'a feat of engineering efficiency that is virtually unmatched.

To create 500 grams of honey, a honeybee must collect nectar from approximately one million flowers - an astonishing ratio that means that the honey bee, not native to Canada but introduced here about 300 years ago, plays a critical role in natural andcommercial plant propagation. But the honey bee's amazing talentsextend far beyond this vital task.
