How Bees Make Honey

A book by

_____________________________________________

Bees make honey from nectar.

Bees use their proboscis to suck nectar from flowers.

Bees store the nectar in their honey sacs and take it back to the beehive.

At the hive, the bees transform the nectar so that it can become honey.

Bees build a honeycomb in their hive to store the nectar.

Bees in the hive fan their wings over the honeycomb to evaporate most of the water from the nectar.

Bees cover the cells with wax, and the thick nectar inside ages the honey.
