BTN: Interesting bee facts - ABC Education

Australian native stingless bees are much smaller than the European honey bee. They only venture a maximum distance of 500m from their hive to forage. Unlike the honey bee, these tiny bees store their honey in small pots made from tree resin which give it powerful medicinal qualities. Each hive only produces a maximum of 1kg per year, making it one of the rarest honeys in the world. #bees #nativebees #nativebee #australianbees #beesofaustralia #beelife #manukahoney #manuka #meliponicultura #meli
