Summary:Occurred May 2017. ''All honey bees live in colonies where the workers sting intruders as a form of defence. Defense can vary based on the habitat of the bee. In the case of those honey bee species with open combs, would-be predators are given a warning signal that takes the form of a "Mexican wave" that spreads as a ripple across a layer of bees densely packed on the surface of the comb when a threat is perceived, and consists of bees momentarily arching their bodies and flicking their wings.''
