question A bee hive inside the house.
How do you all feel about the bee hive inside the house? I feel as if it would be safer for all parties to have it outside, but that's just me

Spotted these two little beauties in the garden earlier. Both were quite lively, walking around, and then disappeared.
I've seen quite a few around. I don't know anything about bees but guessing them being around isn't normal in November, especially after a frost last night.
Any tips on what I can do to help them along when I see them, please?

Beautiful iridescence in the sunshine
Has been here around my house since last night. I was scared it might start a nest under my car, that’s where I first saw it. We have a small garden near the cars but now she’s on my balcony.
Edit: it’s about 2cm in length and 1cm wide. A pretty large boi

I finally got a clear shot of this fella after 2.5 months of trying!

We found this on some annual flowers when we brought it in. We have a green house in the basement that we keep some flowers and succulents thru the winter. If it's a male or worker we were thinking it could live the rest of the days in there, if a queen we will put back outside.
Thank you

Some clarification, I’m not talking about in real life — unfortunately there aren’t nearly enough bees in my area for me to come across a hive — I really enjoy watching those hive relocation videos, and I want to get better at spotting queen bees in large clusters so I can see them myself without having to have someone point it out for me!
I know that every queen will look different, but are there any general differences or characteristics i should look for when trying to spot one?

Dear Sir or Madam,
Please take a few minutes to fill out a short questionnaire that will take about 5 - 10 minutes. The questionnaire is intended for people who are involved in beekeeping. We are students at ZŠ Lokca (Námestovo District) and we created this questionnaire as part of our research project for the international First Lego League research competition. The goal of our research is to gather information and feedback.
If you know anyone else who is also involved in beekeeping, you can forward them the link to this questionnaire. It will help us a lot.
Link to the questionnaire: https://forms.gle/aaCHN8MP6RXQ6RuB8
This questionnaire consists of 2 parts:
General information about your work
Questions and your opinion regarding our research project
Sincerely,
Legoborci z Oravy (competitive team of ZŠ Lokca)

my ma trapped a bee in a jar this morning because she thought it was a spider and didn't want our dog to get bitten. she called me to check if it was dangerous, and i quickly identified it as a large bee, possibly a wasp but i think it's a bee (not an expert in any way shape or form).
we left it out of the dog's reach for about five minutes, but it didn't fly away. on closer inspection its wings look kind of orangey and small, so im wondering if it could be old or injured?
i gave it a teaspoon of water with some sugar dissolved in it and it didn't drink it, just walked into it and i feel terrible.
i would greatly appreciate advice on what to do because i don't want the poor thing to die in our hands!
update: it started buzzing in the jar so i left the window open and it jumped out onto the window sill.

There are a bunch of bees (I think) hanging out around the light on my back porch, slowly dying. There are several dead ones on the ground too.
What is happening?
r/bees • u/Remarkable-Lack4891 • 3d ago
It looks like the normal ones I get around the bottlebrush tree (very southwest NSW Australia), but this little fella has black and white stripes.
Never have i seen these colours, only ever seen the normal black and yellow.
Everything looks the same as the other bees except the white stripes...
Sorry for the terrible quality pictures. I had to 10x zoom while trying to follow the little guy buzzing all around the place.
