Do bees collect pollen in a group?

It may appear that bees are foraging in a group because there are so many of them, but each bee is working on its own. When a bee returns to the hive after finding a new source of nectar it communicates the location and type of plant to other bees in the hive, and they then will go to the same place to forage.

if you would get to close to a hive many of the bees woulde probably try to sting you.bee stings don't kill people except for killer bees which only live in some parts of Africa. if you are allergic to bee stinge it may kill you if it is not taken care of quickly.but it is very fatal... if your a bee,so bees don't want to sting you but they will if they think you are a threat to the hive.

to be a bit more specific- yes, the queen bee goes out and finds her mate when she first leaves the hive, but they make there own hive, and make babys. but shes the only one allowed to reproduce. and like aphids, males are only produced when necessary. so all of the bees in the hive are the queens daughters.
