In an indvidual colony of honey bees (i.e. one hive) the population will fluctuate quite a lot during the year. At its lowest level in Winter it could be 10,000 bees whereas at its height in Summer it could easily exceed 50,000 bees.

In the UK there are an estimated 200,000 to 250,000 hives so you say that there may be as many as 125,000,000,000 honey bees around in the middle of Summer. There are of course also other types of bees - solitary bees and bumblebees, for example - that would raise the number higher.

As for world population, I cannot help you. One would need to consider the different seasons at any one time and the many tpes of stingless and other bees that exist.

What is the difference of a hornets and honey bees?

Ground bees are native bees. They can pollinate plants and feed on nectar, but they do no need to create food store to survive through the winter. Almost all die off. Honey bees pollinate plants as a side-effect of their nectar-gathering activities. Because they maintain a population over winter, they need to store food. Hence, they make honey. ___________ Honey bees will be a colony of thousands in one nest, where ground bees are solitary bees, one bee (raising a brood) to the nest, though there may be dozens of these solitary nest in the same area Lar
