I've thought about bees a lot over the last few years, especially their collective intelligence... the way the hive "knows" things the individual bees don't. I think we can still learn a lot about the way our bodies and minds operate by studying examples in nature, and bees are on my short list for this!
I didn't know this either, and I agree its very facinating: the worker bees work 24 hours a day and live for just 2 months. I did not know the lifespan of certain bees was so short.
