1 I, 1 | spiders, for the bee lives on honey and certain other sweets, 2 IV, 8 | snipes detect the presence of honey at a distance; and do so 3 v, 22 | is dry they attend to the honey, and in rainy weather their 4 v, 22 | the pupae they put in the honey for subsistence, and this 5 v, 22 | by the way, the autumn honey is the better of the two.~ 6 v, 22 | resinous gum of trees, while honey is distilled from dew, and 7 v, 22 | general rule there is no honey before the rising of the 8 v, 22 | the wax from flowers. The honey, however, it does not make, 9 v, 22 | find the hives filled with honey within the space of two 10 v, 22 | autumn flowers are found, but honey, if it be withdrawn, is 11 v, 22 | withdrawal of the original honey, when no food or very little 12 v, 22 | would be a fresh stock of honey, if the bees made it from 13 v, 22 | bees made it from flowers.) Honey, if allowed to ripen and 14 v, 22 | Swarms are robbed of their honey on the appearance of the 15 v, 22 | best larvae at the time the honey is a-making. The bee carries 16 v, 22 | its legs, but vomits the honey into the cell. After depositing 17 v, 22 | about as consistent as thick honey; and from the first it is 18 v, 22 | there is always a drop of honey set against it. The larva 19 v, 22 | these bees produce their honey twice a month. (The bees 20 v, 22 | very little wax but with honey of great consistency; and 21 v, 22 | ivy-flower that they derive their honey. A white and very consistent 22 v, 22 | white and very consistent honey is brought down from the 23 v, 22 | honeycombs: and this kind of honey is produced in other districts 24 v, 22 | these honeycombs supply honey but never contain grubs. 25 v, 23 | cell of the young a drop of honey in front of it. The larvae 26 VIII, 5 | up a hive to get at the honey; it eats crabs and ants 27 VIII, 26| water or dip its fodder in honey, and either one or the other 28 IX, 6 | tamed; from its liking for honey it is a plague to bee-hives; 29 IX, 40 | and stores it away, for honey is the bee’s food. This 30 IX, 40 | process, then devour the honey most ravenously, whereas 31 IX, 40 | bee-bread; this is scarcer than honey and has a sweet figlike 32 IX, 40 | build if a superabundance of honey should suggest their doing 33 IX, 40 | cells, both those for the honey and those also for the grubs, 34 IX, 40 | are small and devoid of honey; the cells that are well 35 IX, 40 | that are well filled with honey are most thoroughly luted 36 IX, 40 | bees; but that they make no honey, but subsist, they and their 37 IX, 40 | their grubs also, on the honey made by the bees. The drones, 38 IX, 40 | and constructs combs, no honey is produced and the bees 39 IX, 40 | nothing to prevent grubs, honey, and drones being all found 40 IX, 40 | they produce either no honey at all, or honey in very 41 IX, 40 | either no honey at all, or honey in very small quantities. 42 IX, 40 | all who try to take their honey, and eject from the hive 43 IX, 40 | desert the hive. They feed on honey summer and winter; but they 44 IX, 40 | they are composed. When honey runs short they expel the 45 IX, 40 | took to carrying off the honey; when the bee-keeper tried 46 IX, 40 | hand, they disgorge their honey as they drink elsewhere, 47 IX, 40 | are two seasons for making honey, spring and autumn; the 48 IX, 40 | spring and autumn; the spring honey is sweeter, whiter, and 49 IX, 40 | way better than the autumn honey. Superior honey comes from 50 IX, 40 | the autumn honey. Superior honey comes from fresh comb, and 51 IX, 40 | from young shoots; the red honey is inferior, and owes its 52 IX, 40 | and the comb is full, the honey does not harden.
