- Honey bees fly at 12.9 km/hour - empty, and 9.7 - 14.5 kms/hour - loaded with nectar or pollen
- Each bee (except for the queen) during honey season, lives for only about 6 weeks. Within this short lifetime, she will fly approximately 800 kms.
- To make 68 kg. of honey, it takes the equivalent of 13 round trips to the moon!
