	'''Bee nests''' are [[Minecraft:block]]s found attached to certain ~~[[Minecraft:tree]]s~~. They house ~~[[Minecraft:bee]]s~~, which fill their homes with honey made from gathered [[Minecraft:flower]] nectar. Full bee nests can be harvested for [[Minecraft:honeycomb]]s (using [[Minecraft:shears]]) or ~~[[Minecraft:~~honey ~~bottle]]s~~ (using ~~[[Minecraft:~~glass ~~bottle]]s~~). Bees will attack ~~[[Minecraft:player]]s~~ who harvest or break their homes without utilizing [[Minecraft:campfire]]s or [[Minecraft:Silk Touch]], respectively.
