      Honeybees live in hives that are normally in wooden boxes that beekeepers put out. The honeybees build up a hive made of wax inside the box.
      Bumblebees live in nest which they build in old burrows and little holes. Their nests are much smaller and are usually made up of little wax pots that’s the bees make to keep honey in.
