Also, this guy is correct, Marijuana is a plant that relies on males & females growing close enough that the wind will carry the pollen from male sacks onto the female buds. They do not rely on insects for pollination, as a matter of fact, many insects get stuck on the resin glands of adult females. Part of the reason marijuana even has THC may be to help protect the seeds from insects. There is much speculation that it may ALSO act as a form of light amplification, or even UVB protection. | I was reading in the most recent issue of cannabis culture and they had a whole diagram on how a plant produces THC. The trichome heads are sticky to protect from bugs since they would get stuck to them. and as uvb light hits the MAT positive and negative ions attract and turn into THC. Kinda cool, at least i think it is.  |

The crop is just like an internal pocket. Vomit is digestive matter that is regurgitated. Honey is just nectar. The crop is a different part of the body and not part of the digestive system. It not only isn't vomit, it's also not like vomit. Just because it comes out of the same hole doesn't make them anything alike. Calling honey 'bee vomit' could be paralelled to calling milk 'cow urine'. I know I'm driving hard at a point, and I'm sorry, it's just a personal pet pieve of mine.
And just so you know, the bee regurgitates nectar, not honey. It becomes honey later on, in the cells of the hive. |

Is he/she stoned??? | Haha, probably not. My experience is with honey bees, and that looks more like a carpenter bee, or a bumble bee of some type. But I know that honey bees will stop and 'rest' for several hours a day. They are much more likely to do it inside their hive, but have been known to do it other places. Bees don't sleep, but they do get tired, and they spend about 12 hours a day resting (which blows a hole in the old saying 'busy as a bee'). When they stop and rest, their abdomen 'pulsates' if you will. It looks kinda like they are humping the air or the ground, or something else, but it's just their body shaking. They do this for a bunch of different reasons, when they release pheromones, or if they are eating something, or sometimes when the breath or are cleaning something.
It's possible that the little guy is stoned, but he's probably just relaxing a bit. Why he chose one of your ladies is beyond me, but like I said my experience is with honey bees. Other forms of bees act slightly differently, depending on their degree of sociality. Hope that helps. |
