Swarming through the air, bees may seem like they’ll last forever, but up-close their lives are brief and precious. Like tiny jewels they glint and glitter in our lives, providing us with all that’s sweet and vital. Follow us to examine the lifespan of these busy, buzzing beauties.
The life of a bee is one of constant buzz. Without the impressive sting of their needle-like structure, this period of life would be drastically different. From birth to death, the power of the bee’s sting remains a mainstay.

Each summer, the sound of buzzing fills our gardens as bees fly from flower to flower. For a bee, life is a single season, but it is packed with activity and purpose. Let’s explore the fascinating lifespan of these busy little creatures.
