check out www.urbanbees.co.uk This virgin queen just emerged from her cell and she started to pipe. It was much louder before I could turn on the camera. Not the best footage. www.urbanbees.co.uk

    That’s just…extraordinary! They make a noise like that on purpose! To challenge other queens or communicate with the hive no less!

    I love bees, but know almost nothing about them. This video is so interesting.
