What a SPECTACULAR documentary with the amazing level of cinematography!!!! Thoroughly enjoyed the commentaries on the life of bees play in each different role/classification within the hive from a spec of egg laid by the Queen to the possible harsh death natural, or intentional as dictated by 'rules of the hive' or a predator. Just a beautiful and insightful documentary!!!
The camera work in these videos is incredible. And some of the the locations where they place the cameras are amazing. I mean, what size camera is needed to place in a bird nest, or mouse hole? These documentary makers are an inspiration, as to what it is possible to achieve. And the hours spent in rain, excessive heat, and other extremes of nature, just to get a particular shot of an animal or insect, is almost unbelievable. But when you think of the results they produce, just so we can sit for an hour or so to watch the fruits of their labour, we must admire and commend their dedication to their craft. Every one of these nature documentaries is an example of excellence, and I intend to watch them all. Thank you.
Thank you so much for bringing so much detail about the life of bees. Such wonderful and enlightening information about the selfless life of bees. We are lucky we can depend on them for all our food, grain, fruit and vegetable produces around the world. We should learn from them and be grateful for their hard and selfless labor.
Great Video, Dear "The Secrets of Nature!" Thousands of Thanks for documenting these "Anna Dhaadhaas" of Earth! Without these tireless and fearless and heedless Public Servants" the world will starve to death. Congratulations! Myself and my husband and my family are "Honey Bee Disciples!" Since our fourth age, till this sixty five, we are with these Divine Angels every day! We keep all races of Honey Bees that are the Natural Ethnic Folks in our surroundigs. We consume home made honey each and every day up to a couple of kilos a day. We also follow Natural Medication thru Honey, Pollen and Bee Venom. Congratulations again!!
I follow and read literature about the honey bee, but this film for me is the pinnacle of knowledge and beauty about the honey bee. Thanks to the filmmakers!!
Fantastic video. I did not care for the background music at times but would rather have just heard the sounds of nature. The amazing interconnectedness of the insect world as well as the Intricacies of the insect bodies and instincts gives even more Discredit to the theory of evolution.
Imagine a couple of million years of evolution brings about a complex and exact infra structure system as the honeybees. And it has worked for million of years. Oh...and this docu was the best i´ve ever seen on the subject
The real impressive thing about insects is their control of genetics, the way they can manipulate their bodies to create new forms, selectively breed the exact bees & ants they choose to produce.... Its their ability to manipulate genetics thats really impressive.
Haha. Welcome to the wonderful world of beehouses. Beehouses are a traditional form of architecture of my Slovenia. It is us who have exported the idea via our great and world's first teacher of beekeeping, Anton Janša (considered father of modern apiculture), appointed so by Her Imperial Majesty Maria Theresa. It is now a common sight elsewhere in former parts of Danubian monarchy, whose beekeepers were taught by Anton Janša. Austrians (and I do believe this documentary was filmed in Austria) build them with symetrical roofs, while we still adhere to assymetry of the roof which provides more benefits to bees and beekeepers alike. When other beekeepers were still keeping their bees in clay pots and skeps, us Slovenes, particularly us Carniolans, already housed our bees in wooden boxes with entrances painted with folk and Biblical motifs, which more or less guaranteed the colony's survival through winter and protection against elements of nature. Every farmer worth his salt had a beehouse and was a beekeeper, the tradition runs just that deep in our blood. Anton Janša was in fact a son of such a farmer. (By the by, Anton Janša contributed not only with his teaching of the established, but also by his prodigious research, challenging the dogmas of the day. He proved that the egg-laying individual is a female, that drones do not carry water and are males, he re-taught the beekeepers of elsewhere a long-running tradition of Carniolan beekeepers to carry their bees to other pastures on wagons etc. etc. - Ultimately the World Bee Day occurs on the day of his birth in honour of him, his work and of course his love and passion, the bees! ) But I digress. These beehouses consist of various apiaries stacked on top of each other. For Alpine country, like Slovenia, that was extremely beneficial, as space was limited. That way many upon many hives can be stacked one upon another and jointly protected from scorch, rain, ice and snow by the roof. An entrance into the beehouse can be arranged from behind, where the beekeeper has space, time and peace of mind, as well as access to all tools at arm's length away to tend to bees and apiaries alike. I like to think that our beehouses, together with our hayracks (kozolci and toplarji) are quite amazing pieces of agricultural architecture, suited perfectly for space-sparse Alps, both centuries old and cornerstone of every self-respecting farmer. (Type "čebelnjak" or "Slovenian beehouse" or something along such lines to see more images of them, and perhaps look up "panjske končnice" to see how we traditionally decorate the 'gates' of our stacked apiaries.)
The only bug that I like. In fact I think they are very cute the way they float around all derp with them googly eyes drooling over flower's. Marvellous creature's
Gods schepping is zó schitterend! Deze wonderlijke diertjes doen wat hun Schepper hen opdraagt. Om zo dienstbaar te zijn aan de mens....honing is zó gezond!
Who ever researched this content did a very cursory job. There is so much more known as to why, how, who... that could have provided so much more information and learning opportunities this subject. Very disappointed that I, someone casually interested in the topic, knew so much more than was presented here.
Not to mention the thousands of hours each bee flies. The average bee lives about 40 days and spends the first couple of weeks inside the hive as nurse bee, not flying, but even assuming flying from day one and 24 hours a day optimal flying conditions (including sun shine, possible above the arctic circle), I make it only 960 hours.
Thank-you for this video. We had bees in the wall of or house and they use to swarm. My father being a former beekeeper would call someone to come and take them away. This helps me to understand what was happening what was happening.
I believe even though they are very small indeed . They are strong and simply Amazing! and the way they are prepared too protect their family is too me a clear sign of the intelligence that they have in my understanding Anyway. It is essential too understand the importance of what can be learned from these little animals. And what can learn is too work as one unit! in reality I feel some people could learn a great deal from in being observant of their behaviour in my opinion .
Back in the days. We had my father’s good friend looked after our big farm. He basically could make a living out of it for his family, as there was lots of fruits & vegetables to harvest. So he was raising bees. I was a kid who was obsessed with sling shots. Those bee hives had a problem with Rock lizards were brutal in attacking the bees & the hives for their survival. So He made a deal with me and said, I know you can do it. Work your slingshot on those lizards and I will give you your share of honey at the end. It was a great deal and I wasn’t without pure honey as long as those lizards were around 😅

The level of mastery displayed in this video is overwhelming. I learnt so much from bees today. Thanks to all those behind this master piece.

Yes sir
Lol
Very beautiful camera work indeed
Thank you for recognizing us 🙏🏿
And whoever made such tiny trumpets deserves credit also
As a new beekeeper this year, i watch as many videos as i can to learn as much as possible about these amazing creatures. This was delightful!
The best bee documentary I've ever watched. You wouldn't need to watch any others!
The only insect that we were thought to like in school. So interesting to learn about their importance in the eco system.
Thank you so much for bringing so much detail about the life of bees. Such wonderful and enlightening information about
the selfless life of bees. We are lucky we can depend on them for all our food, grain, fruit and vegetable produces around
the world. We should learn from them and be grateful for their hard and selfless labor.
U r true sir... All creatures are doing Hard labour for their life survive
This film is exceptionally amazing. I can’t believe myself watching it from start to finish. Great work!

Wow. The photography/videography is incredible. Video of queen returning mated, laying eggs, etc as if you were right there watching.
awesome video thank you for your hard work and the music and the narrating voice was awesome.................waiting on next video
Bij
Fantastic photography that must have taken hundreds of hours, what's amazing is how small the camera must be to get some of the in cell shots.
Hats off to the cameramen & the narrator for the phenomenal photography & full encyclopedia about bees❤️
Fantastic video. I did not care for the background music at times but would rather have just heard the sounds of nature. The amazing interconnectedness of the insect world as well as the Intricacies of the insect bodies and instincts gives even more Discredit to the theory of evolution.
, yaha sir
@@marciahornok2244 sir... Yaha it's our pleasure.. to watching this type of nature
incredible, well made bee movie. I'm mezmerised watching the whole story of this epic kingdoms
Beautiful video. Your voice is very relaxing and the content is so interesting
Imagine a couple of million years of evolution brings about a complex and exact infra structure system as the honeybees. And it has worked for million of years. Oh...and this docu was the best i´ve ever seen on the subject
indeed. somthing so complex is almost impossible to imagine it wasnt designed eh?
Thanks for your hardwork to showcase these .. Love from India
Beevideos are awesome makes me want to learn a lot more about bees.
Excellent. The best bee video and information I've been fortunate enough to come by.
Top quality documentary in every way!
Wow! Good job.
Nature is extremely amazing. 👏
The videography is simply amazing
Great attention to detail in the video. Thank you ❤️🙌
Thanks for wonderful information of the honey bees.
Your dedication to your craft is inspiring.
It was like watching some movie, nice work👍👏👏👏
Seriously, the 1920's music did my head in. Plus his monotone voice 😢 especially 28:24
Excellent documentary!❤️
But the random trumpet and violin are driving me crazy!🤯
Amazing video very informative thank you all
I watched smiling and enjoying every minute of this documentary.
🧀 y
Truly incredible how hard these bee's work. I absolutely love honey. Especially Manuka honey it is the best but very expensive
The fact that they found a bee class cameraman to piggy back a wasp is absolutely amazing.. love it❤
The real impressive thing about insects is their control of genetics, the way they can manipulate their bodies to create new forms, selectively breed the exact bees & ants they choose to produce....
Its their ability to manipulate genetics thats really impressive.
Amazing video, thank you .
I really enjoyed that , thank you

I wonder! What kind of bee keeping setup is that? I've never seen one that is a small building with access to the bees from inside.
I'm an amateur beekeeper and I've never seen this either. Looks really interesting.

Wow sir... Really heart touching video, to watching this video i learn more facts about life, thanks a lot with blessings of lord 🙏
Gods schepping is zó schitterend! Deze wonderlijke diertjes doen wat hun Schepper hen opdraagt. Om zo dienstbaar te zijn aan de mens....honing is zó gezond!
how so incredible of Gods creations so small but very significant for our food producing ,without them we wouldnt have fruit and vegetables to eat
I love bees❤

Thank u🐝
Incredible close-ups.
Everything for the queen love it
The hive. They will kill the queen if she not doing her job
What a naughty bear!! 😂
Please give some info about the background music. I love the tune between 23:11 - 25:51.
سبحان الله هذا خلق الله ❤️❤️❤️
I planted 17 acres of dandelions for the bees.
Not clover?
Amazing video!
Yo where did this footage come from this is literally from a nova episode
Way better quality than the one I watched
Absolutely magical ♥️ incredible video thank you 🙏🏻
@ 38:13 ?...
What was sprayed on the outside of the WINDOW
Or was he just cleaning up the window...
Humans could learn a lot from bees!!
Very good and very nice bro
Wonderfull !!
they are great but why wont you shoot / upload them in at least 720p or 1080p
This is a film from 1998. Back then most documentaries like this were shot on an actual plastic film with a resolution lower than 720p.
Thanks again x
Bees been blessed from god 🙏
That wasp is surely unwelcome!
Lovely. Perfect!
AMAZING HOW BEES CMMUNICATE
Perfection!
The best bee video ever! Varroa mite 26:41. 😢
Bees! 🤩👍
Isnt this just footage from another video??? 🤨
Interesting, for those of you from the 1980's this is the same footage (remastered) of a bee documentary from NOVA. New narration.
It shows there is a transcript, but when I click "show transcript" it will not open the transcript.
Amazing info ❤️
I’m Watching After I Got Stung By Bees Today. 🐝
awesome
I am still trying to figure out who put a camera on a bee's butt to follow it. That is skill.
This video has been cut.
