Honey bees

Seen making beeswax at a local grocery store in the town of Intercourse, Pennsylvania, USA

Beeswax (cera alba) is a natural wax produced by honey bees of the genus Apis. The wax is formed into "scales" by eight wax-producing glands in the abdominal segments of worker bees, who discard it in or at the hive. - Beeswax, Wiki
