According to Maria Boland, author of In the Trees, Honey Bees!(2009), the honeybee has been the most valuable insect for thousands of years. Pollination helps at least 30% of the world’s crops. More than 16,000 beekeepers transport their bees around the US to help crops. Without bees to spread pollen, many plants would die off. Many of our favorite foods are supported by bees.
Native bees pollinate plants and are essential to food crops but they do not produce honey or make beeswax. The bees that make these items are honeybees.
The other class other then the queen are the drones, drones are males hatched from eggs that have not been fertilized, these drones hatch and have one purpose, to mate with the future queen, these drones will be kicked out of the hive after the mating season and will die leaving food for the Harvestmen (leiobunum vittatum) that have a mutual relationship with the bees. The final class in a honey bee hive is the queen, there is only one queen in the hive at a time until a “trigger” is had, this can be a queen randomly dying, an old queen

While she 's young and sometimes sensitive, yet never bubbly; her observations are often dry and even a bit sarcastic, suggesting she keeps herself distant from the world. Of course, sarcasm is hardly a rare quality in teenagers.
These larvae grow and pupate in 4 to 7 days in warm weather. The mature larva contracts until its skin forms a case about 1/4 inch long. Inside this case, the true pupa forms. When fully formed, the adult fly breaks open the end of the pupal case and emerges. It is ready to mate within in a few hours after merging.
"In a small rattan cage, a cliff swallow huddles with its tiny wings tucked in around its body. For the first time in its life, the little swallow will not fly under the rice moon tonight.” This picture of a confined feathered creature sets the phase for Rhiannon Puck 's short story, "Under the Rice Moon.
