Honeybees make honey by collecting nectar from flowers using their long, tube-shaped tongues called proboscis. They store the nectar in their honey stomachs, where enzymes are added to begin breaking down the complex sugars in the nectar. Once back at the hive, the bees pass the nectar to other worker bees through regurgitation. These worker bees then further process the nectar by ingesting and regurgitating it multiple times until it turns into honey. Finally, the honey is stored in honeycomb cells and capped with beeswax for preservation.
