RIP the boy bees

In the winter, the girl bees kick all the boy bees (called drones) out of the hive because they are lazy, don’t work and are messy.

This means that they boys are outside in the freezing cold and die!

 

I went out to check the bees this morning and there was a big pile of dead drone bees on the floor outside!

 

Poor guys.
