Description: studiobeeproductions.com Now I wish I had the definitive answer as to why the bees decided to build under the bee hive, but I don't. I have asked the question to 4 different beekeepers, and I have gotten 4 different responses, none of them being the reason why I think they do it. So, I concluded, it could be anyone's guess as to why the unusual behavior, and for that reason, I chalk it up to "the bees know what they are doing," and I will leave it at that. Still, it makes for interesting conversation, and it is quite the variation to what a "normal" bee yard looks like. Also, it makes for a pretty good topic for a Youtube video.... in my humble opinion. By the way, I will be making a follow up video on these bees progress, so get ready for that. Thanks for watching. God's peace to all. Mr. Ed
