I have been asked if I have ever heard a hive purr like a cat. The
person asking says the bees can be heard from more than 20 feet away and
sound just like a cat. I have not, or maybe I have but not sure just
what the sound is that the person says he has heard.

Has anyone heard of a bees purring, like a cat?
