The day to day lives of honey bees.

Watch these highly social insects as they collect pollen from a specially planted garden and make honeycomb in their hive.

Learn about bee dances and what they mean.

Please note: Due to the Science & Life Gallery redevelopment, Honey bees will be closed between 15 – 24 December 2008 and 27 January – 31 March 2009.
