I had a compost bin at my old place in Texas. I removed the lid one morning to throw in some yard debris, and discovered it had been colonized since the last time I opened it. It must have looked like a ready-made hive to a bee.

But even as I a stood there, looking down into the hive, holding the lid with honeycombs still attached, not a single bee thought to attack me. They were all just freaking out over their queen, which I could plainly see on top of the pile, next to a comb that had fallen from the lid. I carefully replaced the lid and left them alone.

A couple of days later, I decided to buy a hive and try to give them a proper home. So I went to check on them (before I laid out the bucks -- hives aren't cheap!). They were all gone.

That’s pretty cool.
