- Narration
- Es una cálida mañana de primavera. Elisa la abeja está dispuesta a trabajar. Su trabajo es ayudar a hacer comida, pero primero tiene que encontrar flores. Asoma la cabeza por la abertura de la colmena y se aleja volando. Utiliza sus sentidos de la vista y del olfato para encontrar flores. Poco después, Elisa encuentra unos manzanos llenos de flores. Se posa en una de ellas. Utiliza su larga lengua para succionar el néctar. Pequeños granos del polen de la flor se adhieren al pelo que recubre su cuerpo. Se cepilla algunos de los granos de polen y los deposita en las bolsitas de sus patas. Después, se posa en otra flor. Elisa recolecta tanto néctar y polen como puede transportar y vuelve a la colmena enseguida. De vuelta en la colmena, Elisa entrega el néctar y el polen a otras abejas obreras. Éstas comienzan a transformar el néctar en miel. También lo utilizan para hacer otros alimentos. Comen parte de los alimentos, alimentan a otras abejas de la colmena y guardan un poco para el invierno. Elisa vuelve volando a las flores. Hace muchos más viajes yendo y viniendo de la colmena a las flores y de las flores a la colmena. Está ayudando a las abejas de su colmena, ¡pero también nos está ayudando a nosotros! Cuando las abejas recolectan polen de una flor, lo llevan a otras flores, lo que las ayuda a generar semillas. A veces, crecen frutos alrededor de estas semillas. Sin abejas como Elisa, frutos como las manzanas o las almendras no crecerían. No tendríamos tantas flores ni alimentos. Al final del día, Elisa está cansada. ¡Ha sido un día duro!, pero ha hecho un buen trabajo. Se acomoda un lugar confortable en la colmena y descansa. Sus sueños están llenos de flores y miel muy, muy dulce.
