Or are there some cultures where bees are viewed as such

@Syenite

Living plant life is as well. Many living creatures are an embodiment to mother nature to me because she has many facets

Bees to me are her beauty and design accompanied with her brutality and cruelty and the necessity of survival

Honeybees in particular have complex social behaviour

Whereas plants don't

They're estimated to have been on the planet for almost 120 million years. And we still don't understand so much about them

That is so true and epic

As nature itself provides, for the smallest it species which climbs up the ladder and food chain. It homes and harbors the living how big or small. She grows she dies she comes back to life, she is eternal in a sense by being defined by environmental embodiments.
Nurturing but also brutal and cruel

Kinda where it comes through for me

I usually see mother nature in a sense of a being which just is and wills as she does

I cant think of the word I want to use

the word you're looking for is bullshit

I see it in the bees because there is no individual interest everything is about the survival of the species. The future of the colomy

That's a lot of things tho

She does what is necessary for life to continue

Yes it is

That's just where I see it cause that's what I work with

I see mother nature everywhere. But I feel it strongest when I am with the bees. They are so ancient and have evolved so perfectly and instinctually

Oh I get what you mean
I just don't relate it to creatures as well due to the fact that we live within her from my perspective of it

Rather than cohabitation we exist because of her not in spite of her

I guess I see it more with bees because plants are so dependent on them as well

Hornets are actually more often used than bees for mass pollination on farms

Farmers will buy Hornets for purpose of spreading pollen

Not in cali

Lol

Or here

It also travels in many other ways

Leaf cutter bees if not honey

Mmm bee

Hornets are not sufficient native pollinaters here

what it boils down to is your view of mother nature is doo doo and mine is right ok

Not Hornets actually

Wasps *

My bad

Wasps only in spring

Wind and many other buggies n animals also do a well job of pollination
Bees are surely important though

Yes and no

Most of our produce is not pollinated any other way

There's a reason they have to pay for thousands of honeybees to pollinate California crops

A third of agriculture is pollinated by bees
