What’s the buzz? That would be the latest edition of the Secrets of series, with two back-to-back episodes devoted to the small yet mighty bee. National Geographic Explorers Bertie Gregory and entomologist Dr. Samuel Ramsey explore the complex social system within the bees’ hidden world, covering the globe and embedding inside a single hive, with special cameras observing behaviors over a three-year span. Looking beyond their role as pollinators, the special introduces us to a meat-eating bee in the Amazon rainforest and a honeybee sisterhood working together to survive a winter, while others compete for mates.
