@jammy_adventures: This is called “bearding” the bees keep the hive brood chamber at a constant temperature of 33-36 degrees C. During winter, they cluster to keep the queen warm, and in summer, they use fanning and water evaporation to cool the hive, ensuring the brood survives while staying active. Bees bearding in hot weather is a normal, healthy behavior where bees cluster outside the hive entrance to manage internal temperatures, reduce humidity, and prevent overcrowding. They often hang in a "beard-like" shape, particularly on hot, humid days or evenings. This behavior prevents the brood nest from overheating and usually requires no intervention from the beekeeper. #bees #beehive #beebearding #beekeepers #beekeepersoftiktok
