The action happens in two steps. Step 1: The Pillbug lifts the piece out of the Hive. Step 2: The Pillbug places the piece into a free space next to itself. These two steps are important to understand because the Pillbug cannot break the one-Hive rule. That is to say, it cannot move a piece essential to the Hive.
Honey bees are one of only a few kinds of insects that survive the winter as a colony. As the outside air temperature decreases the winter cluster becomes tighter and more compact. The bees cling tightly together on the combs in the hive. The temperature within the winter cluster remains remarkably warm regardless of the outside air temperature.
Each unfertilized egg contains a unique combination of 50% of the queen's genes [1] and develops into a drone. The fertilized eggs develop into either workers or queens (if fed exclusively royal jelly). Every honey bee (Apis mellifera) in a hive exists to perform specific duties determined by their sex and age. Like every member of its colony ...
In beekeeping, a Langstroth hive is any vertically modular beehive that has the key features of vertically hung frames, a bottom board with entrance for the bees, boxes containing frames for brood and honey (the lowest box for the queen to lay eggs, and boxes above where honey may be stored) and an inner cover and top cap to provide weather protection.

The forage sources for honey bees are an important consideration for beekeepers. In order to determine where to locate hives for maximum honey production and brood one must consider the off-season. If there are no honey flows the bees may have to be fed. Bees that are used for commercial pollination are usually fed in the holding yards.

Video from the Tennis Channel showed bees swarming over a piece of equipment. Carlos Alcaraz, who was early into a match with Alexander Zverev, was seen in the video swatting away the bees and ...
Waggle-dancing bees produce and release two alkanes, tricosane and pentacosane, and two alkenes, -9-tricosene and (Z)-9-pentacosene, onto their abdomens and into the air. [ 7 ] The direction and duration of waggle runs are closely correlated with the direction and distance of the resource being advertised by the dancing bee.
