I was talking with anopther bee person yesterday and we got to wondering, what percentage of the bee population are foragers, what percentage guard bees, nurse bees, etc.


Does anyone have a breakdwon on thiis?  I know things change during the seasons so let's just consider the time during honey flow and swaarming.

Thanks,
Mike in LA
