Unexpectedly found a beehive only 2 handspans above the ground

Unlike the usual bee nests located in hollows, on tree branches up to tens of meters high, this bee nest is located right on a wild branch in the sugarcane grove and is less than 2 hand spans above the ground.

Howler bee, the animal is likened to "bee of the wind".

Unlike the usual nests that are only made in hollows or on tree branches up to tens of meters high; the wasp nest discovered by Mr. Hoang, in Nghia Lo ward, Quang Ngai city, was located right on a wild tree branch in a sugarcane clump and less than 2 hand spans above the ground. This special wasp nest is a little bigger than an adult's open hand.

The location in the sugarcane field where the wasps were found to make their nest.

Although they are both honey-producing species, the howler bee is only half the size of other honey-producing bees. The number of "members" in the colony and the size of the howler bee's nest are many times smaller than those of the honey bee or hover bee.

Natural honey is made from its saliva and transformed pollen, not from nectar, sugar... so it has a sweet, clear and slightly sour taste.

The price of honey is currently over 2 million VND/liter but it is not available to buy.

Along with many uses in medicine and used for beauty processing, the amount of honey is very small, only 0.3-0.7 liters/hive, equal to 1/4-1/3 compared to honey bees... so howler honey is sought after by many people, with a price of nearly 2 million VND/liter, 4-6 times higher than honey from flies and honey bees, but it is not available to buy.

Therefore, according to many people who specialize in finding and collecting wild bees for honey to sell, finding a wasp nest is a matter of luck.
