Bees are purposeful creatures, only leaving their hive to forage for 4 things: nectar (carbohydrate), pollen (protein), water and propolis. Here on Nevis, the dwell time of the bees gathering nectar from coastal flora is short - just long enough to get the job done. No slacking !

[Dave Goulson @DaveGoulson]

Fascinating to see nature in action in this time-series from the Knepp rewilding project.
