Word of the Week: die Biene

Die Biene (pronounced dee beener) is somebody we all rely on. Bees gather nectar from flowers for their own food, and while doing this their bodies collect grains of pollen. The pollen grains then brush off onto other flowers and those flowers develop into seeds and fruit. Without bees a lot of our flowering plants would find it tough to survive. Bees do have a nasty sting but they only use it as a last resort!
