Visits to the Smithsonian's National Zoo just became a little bit sweeter with the arrival of a new honeybee colony. With a hive made of glass in the Zoo's Pollinarium and full access to the outdoors, these bees are showing off the wondrous ways of their world.  

"Our display allows you to get up close," said Zoo entomologist and invertebrate keeper Donna Stockton. "You can see the bees going in and out of the exhibit; watch them dance; and study the pollen cells, nectar cells, honey cells and brood cells. You can really observe this complex society in action."

To celebrate the bees' arrival and generate buzz, the Zoo is calling for entries on the website from individuals of all ages in two categories: favorite honey recipes and original honeybee poems. In addition to displaying entries on its website, the Zoo will randomly select one participant from each category to take a private tour with their families of the Zoo's Pollinarium and Invertebrate Exhibit. (For video of the new colony, check out the Zoo's YouTube page.)
