David Attenborough's Encounter with Terrifying AGGRESSIVE Bees! | Micro Monsters | Nature Bites

Үй жануарлары мен аңдар

David Attenborough takes us through the strange hierarchy of a family of bees who choose a new queen through aggressive battles!
Bees are insects with wings closely related to wasps and ants, known for their role in pollination and, in the case of the best-known bee species, the western honey bee, for producing honey. Bees are a monophyletic lineage within the superfamily Apoidea. They are presently considered a clade, called Anthophila.
Over the course of three episodes, Sir David Attenborough takes viewers deep into the world of bugs. Pioneering macroscopic techniques allow Attenborough to explore in unparalleled detail the intricate, sophisticated behaviours of fascinating creatures and the complexity of the environments they build and inhabit, in a world normally hidden from the human eye. Each of the three episodes explore a different aspect of the little-known lives of insects, from the deceptive defensive mechanisms harboured by spiders and scorpions, to the creation of colonies and how social arrangements develop.

    On the window of my kitchen I had a coffee mug inside which paper wasp built a nest with about 20 hexagonal chambers glued to the shiny smooth surface of the mug with just one thin material probably their saliva combined with some other material. I observed their activities., them flying out returning again out in total there were about 5 or 6 wasps which built and looked after it. One day a big Hornet wasp flew into my kitchen, landed inside the coffee mug and started eating the unborn larvae. The smaller wasps simply moved away till the Hornet wasp flew away. Nest was abandoned after few days. I looked at the nest and was amazed to find that thin material was so firmly stuck to the smooth side of the mug. What is that material? How did the Hornet wasp know there is a nest of the smaller wasp inside the coffee mug in my kitchen? I felt sad for the small wasp family. All they could do was stay away and watch the Hornet wasp eating their children.

    Bumblebees tend to build their nests inside old mouse nests. My Dad has made an effort to make the bottom part of my parents garden into a wildlife haven with lots of unmaintained grass (primarily for the slow worms), and several times over the years he's found bumblebee nests which have then later been damaged by an animal. Usually the solution has been to put some dry grass clippings on the nest then rest a concrete slab on some bricks, covering the nest to protect it from further attacks. It's fascinating to be able to see them up close, and to see how fast they form the grass clippings into the shape they want. Most colonies I've seen have probably been a few dozen bumblebees, some had more, some had less, but any less than about a dozen bees and the colony struggles to survive.

    there are many solitary bee species, and some of them kinda look like bumblebees, but I don't think any that are called bumblebees are solitary. bumblebees are solitary for a while in the spring though. whereas new honeybee queens swarm with a pretty big number of workers from their old colony, new bumblebee queens overwinter alone and then find a place to nest in the spring where they create and feed the first worker brood alone. that's why in the spring, you first see very large bumblebees, the queens, flying around, and then very small ones (I'm talking about the same species of course, recognizable by their colours), because the queen can't feed the first workers enough for them to grow big. early in the spring you can also identify bumblebee queens that haven't found a nest yet because instead of looking for flowers, they're looking for holes in the ground or in objects (in nature normally mouse tunnels) to build their hive in.
