CLEAR LAKE STATE PARK – There is a lot of buzzing going on. It is all happening in the visitor center auditorium at 1:30 p.m., Saturday, July 18.

“Bees – Tales from the Hive,” a NOVA production, provides amazingly up-close footage, filmed with specially developed macro lenses, brings you the most intimate- and most spectacular- portrayal of a working bee colony ever filmed. It’s not frightening – it’s fascinating. See things you never imagined. Hear things only bees hear. Discover newly found facts about the strange and complex life of bees.

Did you know it takes nectar from 10 million flowers to create a single liter of honey? No wonder they’re called worker bees! Tales from the Hive exposes a bee colony’s secret world- detailing such rarely seen events as the life-or-death battle between a pair of rival queens, a bee eater's attack on the hive, a scout bee’s mysterious dance that shares special "nectar directions" with the rest of the hive.

There is no entrance fee to the park for attending scheduled programs, walks or visiting the museum. The visitor center, including the gift shop, will open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday throughout the summer. Guided walks take place on the second and fourth Sunday at 8:30 a.m.
