What are these bees doing?

A Best Bees beekeeper captured this video of a worker bee evicting a larger drone bee out of the entrance of the beehive, in an annual ritual known as the expulsion of the drones.

Over 90% of honey bees are female worker bees, who keep busy foraging, building up honey stores, nursing developing brood, and defending the hive. The other 10% are male drone bees, who do not contribute to the hive and whose sole purpose is to mate with queen bees from other colonies.

As temperatures cool, the worker bees remove the drones from the colony by force – eliminating extra mouths to feed, and protecting valuable resources over the long winter.

Have you ever heard of the expulsion of the drones?

What if a spoonful of honey could help shape a company’s land management strategy? 🍯

Through HoneyDNA™, we analyze the plant DNA found in honey to better understand the biodiversity surrounding a beehive. The results can help establish ecological baselines, guide habitat restoration and land management decisions, and support nature-related reporting by tracking changes over time.

In a recent USGS research highlight, scientists studying endangered rusty patched bumble bees found that pollen DNA revealed more forage plant species than direct observation. Knowing which plants these bees use throughout the season can help guide planting decisions.

At Best Bees, we explore honey bee diets through HoneyDNA™, analyzing pollen DNA in honey to understand their floral resources and surrounding habitat.

Different bees, different samples, a shared insight: understanding what pollinators actually use can help us make more informed decisions about the landscapes we manage.

That’s a wrap on Climate Week 2026 🌱

Last week Best Bees CEO Delaney Dameron attended for a week of inspiration, connection, and community.
Conversations with fellow climate leaders reflected both the scale of the challenges ahead and a shared sense of possibility in what collaboration can accomplish.

One theme came through especially clearly: pollinators have an important place in the conversation about biodiversity. We’re heading home energized by the growing attention to nature-based solutions and the opportunities to turn that momentum into meaningful action.

Late-season blooms are a pollinator lifeline 🌻

As habitats shift and the foraging season winds down, bees depend on late-blooming flowers for crucial sources of nectar and pollen to carry the colony through the winter.

This National Honey Month, we’re looking beyond the jar to everything honey can reveal about the world around us. 🍯 🌎

The pollen contained in honey can tell us which plants honey bees encountered across miles of surrounding landscape.

At Best Bees, HoneyDNA™ turns those traces into biodiversity insights. Combined with satellite data and local context, they help us understand what’s growing, where forage is concentrated, and where there may be opportunities to support pollinators through informed planting.

Let honey inform what you plant next 🌱 Link in bio 🔗 to get started.

See your garden in a whole new light. 🌼🐝

After taking the Best Bees Learning Series: Intro to Pollinators & Biodiversity, Gail started noticing her own backyard differently. The insects visiting her flowers, the plants they return to, and the relationships buzzing all around her became something she could recognize and understand in a new way.

Best Bees CEO, Delaney joined Gail in her Boston garden to talk about what she learned, what surprised her, and how a little pollinator knowledge can change the way we experience the spaces right outside our doors.
