Hexagonal tiling honeycomb

Okay, imagine you are looking at some bees in their hive. You see lots of little hexagons, like a honeycomb. Each hexagon is made up of six sides that are all the same length and angle. This is called a "hexagonal tiling honeycomb." Just like how we use bricks to make a wall, bees use hexagonal shapes to build their home. But unlike bricks, those shapes are all the same size and shape. Isn't nature amazing?
