The two categories of bees are social bees and solitary bees.  Social bees live in colonies from 10 to 80,000 members.  Solitary bees live alone but close to many other hives for protection.  Most of the bee population is a solitary bee.

Bees will only sting to defend their nests or if they are disturbed.  Glands attached to the sting produce a venom made up hazardous chemicals.  Usually, after losing its sting, a worker bee dies.  However, a queen bees only uses her sting to fight with other queens.  A queen bee does not lose her sting.

A bee develops after the queen lays the egg.  After 3 days a larva crawls out of the egg.  The workers feed the larva a creamy substance called as royal jelly.  This is for the nutrients and proteins.  When the larva is three days old, the workers begin feeding it a mixture of honey and pollen called beebread.  The larva then becomes a pupa and develops into an adult. After 21 days, the adult worker bee bites its way out of the cell.

Stingless Bees - Have small stings but do not use them as weapons. They usually bite with their jaws. Stingless bees live only in tropical and near-tropical areas. They are not found in the United States.

Bumble Bees - Live in colonies of 50 to several hundreds of bees.  A bumble bee's nest can only contain a small amount of honey

Carpenter Bees - Build their nests in dead twigs or branches.  The tunnel has a series of cells, each containing food and one egg.  This is a solitary bee

Leafcutting Bees - Cut out pieces of leaves and pack them into nests in tunnels.  Leafcutting bees can build their homes in the ground, branches, or in pieces of softwood.  A tunnel usually has six or more cells, one above the other. This is a solitary bee.

Mining Bees - Dig tunnels in the ground.  A mining bee usually protects the eggs that the queen bee lays.  It attacks any strangers that come in. This is a solitary bee.

Mason Bees - Build their nests in decaying wood, snail shells, walls, or large stones.  They use saliva and clay to make a shell around the eggs to protect them. This is a solitary bee.

Cuckoo Bees - Do not build their own nests.

Parasitic Bees - do not make nests or forage themselves, but rather use the nests and food of other species of bees to provide for their parasitic young

A bee sting is usually painful, and the poison constantly produces pain and swelling.  If you are stung by a bee, scrape the stinger off immediately being careful not to pinch or squeeze it.  This action reduces the amount of venom that goes in your body.

Eyes: A bee has 5 eyes, 3 small in a triangle and 2 big on the side.  Bees can not focus their eyes because they have no pupils.

Antennae: Help the bee smell and touch.  Also, the antennae helps the bees communicate as to where the honey and pollen might be.

Wings: A bee has 4 wings. 2 small and 2 big.

Legs: A bee has 6 legs.  The bee uses its legs for many purposes such as cleaning dirt from its antenne, carry pollen, and to flatten out the pollen on to the cell to build the hive.

Sting: A bees main use of protection.  Many bees die usually after losing their sting.

Bees are very important in our every day lives. In the book Stung, Lis tells Fiona that bees are on the endangered species list. Bees help pollinate a huge percentage of the worlds crops. If the bees die out, many crops that we eat will die. Also, if the crops die, all the animals that eat the crops such as cows, and chickens, will die. Humans will not have meat to eat which is usually the main item in a usual meal. This is how bees are essential to our lives.
