Amazing Photo Of A Honeybee Nest\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

Sent in by a resident was this amazing photo of a Honeybee nest in the wild. A local beekeeper pointed out that this will probably not survive the winter. Bee colonies in a hive and sheltered from the elements stand a fair chance of getting through. So if you come across one outside a hive, get in touch with a local beekeeper and they will try to recover the nest and bring it to safety.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nThe Honeybee is not a native of Britain but was introduced because of the honey it produces and most honeybees that visit your garden will have flown from a nearby hive. Several residents keep bees and one of the Wildlife Group orchards is host to a couple of hives.
\nNot only do they produce honey, beeswax and royal jelly but they help to pollinate our crops and flowers.<\/p>\n
