Bee Micro-colony (IMAGE) Cornell University Caption A top view of a micro-colony. The blue cup contains a pollen diet. In the center, a bee has her head in a honey pot and directly below her in the image are a series of little yellow bumps (resembling popcorn), which are the early brood cells. They contain eggs or very small larvae.
