If bees can do it,

The bees seem to
be having a drink!

Of all the long
tongues in the world
you could see

there are few
tongues as long
as the tongue
of a bee.

Excuse me,
Miss Bee.

What's that
you're drinking?

I'm not drinking,
dear.

I'm collecting nectar
for the hive, dear.

Ah! Nectar!
Of course.

Nectar, nectar,
nectar.

Is nectar the secret
ingredient for honey?

Yes it is and it's
found inside flowers.

The dance showed you
the way to the nectar!

A wiggle this way,
and a step that way.

The bees were telling
you where to go!

Oh my! You are such
a clever one dear.

Now if you'll excuse
me I have a lot of
slurping to do.

If it's slurping
you're after,

then I'm clearly
your cat.

I can help with
the slurping.

Ah!

Oh dear, I can't imagine
such a dreadful thing!

Please, help yourself.

This is the best honey ever!

Yes, and you've just
helped to make it.

It all starts with the
honey dance you see.

Ah ha! The dance leads the bees
to the nectar then they

mix and they spit and
then store it away!

[gurgle and spit noise]

It's ever so clever and though
it sounds funny

The nectar, when
mixed, turns right into...

Honey!

some home with you.

Mr Squirrel.

Let me help you out.

Yeah!

If we find some food for
him he might come back.

What do Purple
Martins eat, Sally?

Bugs!

Come on! We need to
find some bugs.

Bugs?

Oooh, not many of those
around here this time of year.

They don't like
the cold, see.

You'll have to go a
long way from here

if you want to
find any bugs.

Woh!

Don't mind me!

Just checking out this hole
as a possible vacation home?

That 'hole',
is a 'rabbit hole'

be great.

But - what about
my friends?
