Does it take four bee loads of nectar to make one drop of honey?

Although a bee's honey crop can hold up to 100 milligrams (mg) of nectar, they usually return to the hive with about 40 mg, so four loads would be about 160 mg. However, it doesn't end there. Nectar is between 80 and 90 per cent water. As the bees convert the nectar to honey, most of this water is evaporated off until the honey is down to about 16 per cent water so from the original 160 mg, over 100 mg of water is removed.The four bee loads of nectar is now down to around 50 milligrams. The relative density of honey is about 1.4, so a 5ml teaspoon will hold around 7 grams of honey, which is 140 lots of 50 mg. I'll leave it to you to work out whether you can get 140 drops of honey into a teaspoon.

What does a honey bee make honey from?

Honeybees collect sweet nectar from flowers and bring it back to their hives. There it is stored for future use, because its sugar provides honeybees with the energy they need. The nectar is stored as honey, which is a thick, concentrated form of nectar that has been converted in the bees' digestive tracts. Honey is stored in little compartments or cells in the hive, which the bees seal over with beeswax which they also produce. We call this honey-filled wax honeycomb. Beekeepers take honeycomb from the hive (leaving enough behind for the bees), using the wax for candle making and the honey to sweeten all kinds of foods.they collect pollen.
