they collect pollen from flowers and take it to there hive to make honey
Honey bees (European originally), although Killer bees will take over a hive.
Make a fire, smoke the bees out, retrieve the honey.
No. Bees seen around water are there to drink. They also collect water to take back to the hive.
Honey does not come out of a bee's body. Bees collect nectar from flowers and take it back to the hive where it is spread in cells in the honeycomb. The combination of warmth and air flow in the hive evaporates water from the nectar, and the result is honey.
Bees eat their own honey because that's what they live off of throughout the year, especially during colder months when there are little or no blooming plants for the bees to collect the nectar for the hive. To better understand this, we need to know exactly what a hive is, and I think once you understand what a hive is, the rest will make sense. From the dictionary a hive is a place "to store or lay away for future use or enjoyment." That being said, that is what bees do. They store wax and honey for lean months. As a beekeeper, we take the comb from the hive from time to time to extract the honey for our own use. When we do this, the bees naturally continue to make wax, honey, and propolis. They don't realize that the comb is full of honey is gone, they just know that there is an empty space that they need to create more wax and honey in. When fall comes, the beekeeper, if he is managing his hive properly, will leave in the hive as many combs full of honey to sustain them through the bees winter months. That's why bees eat their own honey.
Honey bees have made a hive in your lawn because there previous hive has reached maximum capacity. When this happens it is called swarming. The queen produces a female and allows her to take a portion of the drones or workers with her to form a new hive. If the hive I in the lawn it has used a preexisting hole supplied by some form of animal.
This is a web site about bee keeping...Once you have a swarm of bees working to make honey you just have to let the honey drain, or you could purchase a draner that will take the honey out of the hive for you. http://www.beeremovalspecialist.com/beekeeping.html
I can assure you I am no expert, but I am pretty sure that bees do not eat their honey. What they do is fly around to flowers, take the nectar, and bring it back to thier hive to make honey. So actually yes, I guess they do eat honey. But they'd do it in their hive, so you'd never see them.
Obviously bees don't make the hives - humans do that. The hives we see today were designed to make it easier to keep bees and harvest honey. Before the current type of hive, it was necessary for the beekeeper to destroy the nest each autumn in order to take the honey.
Bees collect nectar from flowers and store it in their honey stomach. Once back at the hive, they regurgitate the nectar into the honeycomb cells. They then fan the nectar with their wings to remove excess moisture, eventually transforming it into honey through enzymatic processes.
