Bee

Description:

Bees live in colonies, which may be artificial or natural. In its interior, the workers use wax to build the honeycombs (formed by cells in the form of hexagonal prism), where store honey and pollen for feeding both larvae and adult insects. Normally, every year each colony releases one or more clusters containing a queen who always settles elsewhere, with plenty of flowers, founding a new colony. That's how the species propagates.

Habitat:

I found this hive in a dry trunk in a mountainous region of transition between the Atlantic Forest and Cerrado
