To expand on this… Part of what happens to the nectar inside the bee’s honey crop is the addition of various enzymes (IIRC invertase is one. I don’t recall any of the others) that modify the sugars and other compounds in the nectar.
So nectar goes in, the result of nectar + enzymes comes out, then it’s dried until the moisture content is low enough (~18% is what I was told as a beekeeper. Who knows how the bees measure it…)
Not to be all “Well ackchyually” but most (maybe all?) of the moisture reduction happens after the nectar has been stored in the comb, but before it has been capped with wax for storage. So the bottom two panels are out of order.
Also, if anyone cares, the term for the mouth-to-mouth passing of the nectar is trophallaxis.
We used to feed our cats almost entirely dry food, with wet food as an occasional treat (no real schedule for wet, just every now and then).
But over the years we’ve had a number of cats that had health issues that were mitigated by switching to mostly wet food.
So now it’s reversed- almost entirely wet food with dry food occasionally (every couple of days or so). At least, for our indoor cats.
We also take care of a feral colony (many of which we’ve TNR’d), and those cats get dry food for logistical and cost reasons.
Maybe you’re right. I get all confused when it’s not in Möbius order.
