If you're listening to this while tending to your bees, perhaps you're a beekeeper.

If you're a beekeeper, you're presumably feeding them or you're stealing their food to make honey or something.

Do bees eat honey or do they just gather it to pollinate flowers or something? I'm not sure.

They put the honey all over their face or something so they look shiny and sparkly and attract the mate.

Do bees even attract the mate? Don't they all have one queen bee and then the rest of them are like members of the clergy.

They take a vow of celibacy and then they serve this queen bee until she's dead.

I presume there's an heir to the throne, at least in a communal bee community, such as, for example, a beehive.

There's no king bee, there's just a green bee and all her underlings and slaves and hired help.

What do they do with it then? Maybe they varnish the house, they varnish the beehive and the hetrax.

Maybe it's to keep something away, keep predators away or people from another bee kingdom.

Either way, If you're a beekeeper, you're probably feeding your bees or stealing their food or stealing their varnish, aka honey, or whatever it is they do there.

Keep feeding your bees, tending to your bees in your beekeeping thing, or else you're tending to the bee infestation that you have in your house.
