Reportages - Le monde mystérieux des abeilles sauvages (101) Images supplémentaires...
Les photographies d'Ingo Arndt révèlent la vie fascinante de l'abeille sauvage comme jamais auparavant. Avec l'aide de scientifiques de premier plan, Ingo a passé de longs mois à explorer le comportement complexe des abeilles mellifères de nos forêts et pris plus de 60.000 photos. Ses images spectaculaires nous font pénétrer dans le nid des abeilles sauvages et révélent un insecte résistant,capable de repousser les attaques et de s'adapter à un environnement changeant. Il a capturé des comportements fascinants, notamment les abeilles excrétant des écailles de cire pour construire leurs rayons, formant des chaînes vivantes pour réguler la température du nid, les abeilles nouvellement formées se frayant un chemin hors de leurs cellules de couvain recouvertes de cire. Les images les plus étonnantes du projet montrent une bataille épique avec des abeilles ingénieuses qui se liguent pour rôtir un frelon vivant qui menaçait la colonie!
