Yes, bees do sleep. In fact the saying 'busy as a bee' is a bit of a myth. Researchers have marked and watched individual bees in colonies and reported that they spend about a third of their time doing actual tasks within the hive, about another third feeding or just wandering about the hive with no apparent purpose, and for the remainder of the time they remain still. During these times the heads drop and the legs seem to relax, letting the body rest -- effectively a state of sleep.
Young bees, while they are still working only within the hive, tend to have rather chaotic sleep and activity patterns, snatching short bouts of sleep at any time. But once they start foraging they become more diurnal, foraging during the day and sleeping at night.
Bees do not sleep in the same way that humans or other animals do. They are in a state of rest when at rest, and this can involve periods of reduced activity or complete stillness. Bees are always alert and ready to respond to any threats or opportunities in their environment.

When was honey invented by bees?
it was not really inveted. bees started to drink the pullen and they started makeing honey. and it was starting probably a little bit before the pioneers. cause pioneers had honey with bread for lunches sometimes. it is a pretty easy consupcion. just have to read about pioneers.Actually bees don't drink pollen they drink nectar from the flowers. Pollen sticks to their legs and bodies as they get into the flowers.I think bees were around a long time before pioneers and bees have been making honey ever since there were bees. That's what they do!

Do bees sleep?
Bees do sleep. Not necessarily at night. I have observed bees and photographed them sleeping in flowers in my backyard. At first I thought it might be an intoxicating element of the plant and perhaps the bees were all dead. I touched one to check and the bee reacted as a person sleeping. The bee was disturbed by the touch, moved about, re-adjusted his position and seemed to go back to sleep. There were well over a dozen bees and one yellow jacket in this bed of flowers when this observation was made. Fascinating.
