It would take approximately 1 ounce of honey to fuel a bee's flight around the world. [/FONT] [FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]9.  Honey is the primary food source for the bee. The reason honeybees are  so busy collecting nectar from flowers and blossoms is to make  sufficient food stores for their colony over the winter months.
