One of nature geometric wonders is the hexagon.

Regular hexagon has 6 sides of


same length and this shape is seen again and again in the world around us. The
most common example is the bee hive which forms a hexagon. Bees build their
hive using hexagonal tessellation.

Bees are wonderful and extra ordinary creatures that are far more complicated in
what we may know. The bee hive is the kind of honeycomb with a uniquely-
shaped hexagon cells. These tiny structures are ideal for bees from collecting
pollen, nectar, forming a honeycomb and house larvae. Since the bee hive can
contain up to a thousand bees, optimizing the room is a vital importance for the
bees. At this point, we need to be informed that the bees are talented
mathematicians and engineers. Since they discover that the hexagon is the
solution and ideal shape to use for their scarce resources.

We all know where honey comes from but we may not know it how hard it is for
the bees to collect it. Since I was little I like honeys but afraid of bees because
once I was chase by bees and got stung all over my body. Now I realize that bees
works together as one, they have an incredibly strong responsibility to work
together to protect their hive. Each one of them has different responsibility from
workers, to drones and to queen.

To summarize all this we can say that bees are amazing creatures with complex
social structures, division of responsibilities, outstanding engineering skills and
most of all they are dedicated to their work and cooperate effectively to finish the
task.
