Bees. Ever since I found that there were bees living in our compost, I had a sudden urge to learn about these little flying critters. I am amazed at how much they resemble humans.
(1) I found out that bees don't fly at night. They go back to their hives to rest after a long day's work. Just like humans.
(2) A hive usually contains a colony of female bees who do most of the work while the male bees just stay home moping. Sounds familiar, doesn't it?
(3) And last but not least, there is only enough room for ONE Queen bee to rule the colony. Now, THAT really echoes the similarity!
