Irony?
"Honeybees are social insects and live in colonies. Each colony is a family unit, comprising a single, egg-laying female or queen and her many sterile daughters called workers. The workers co-operate in the food-gathering, nest-building and rearing the offspring. Males are reared only at the times of year when their presence is required."
