“Touch my honey this time and you'll be sorry!”
Beehive, Banjo-Kazooie

Beehives are passive enemies who are recurring characters in the Banjo-Kazooie series. As their name implies, they are essentially wooden beehives. Present in nearly every world, Beehives bounce up and down innocently and are defenseless against attacks by hungry honey bears. It only takes a single swipe, and defeating one yields three tasty honeycombs, making them more of a free source of energy rather than obstacles.

Although Beehives are harmless, they are not always defenseless. Some Beehives in later worlds of Banjo-Kazooie (from Gobi's Valley and onwards) can be seen with a Bee Swarm buzzing around them.

In Banjo-Tooie, none of the Beehives are protected by any bees, although later worlds contain dangerous Cursed Beehives which act like normal beehives just long enough to lure Banjo into a surprise attack. They require several hits to take down, and give only two honeycombs. They can be distinguished from normal Beehives from a distance by their red eyes.

In Banjo-Pilot, there is a cup known as the Beehive Cup.

In Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts, a Beehive appears as an exhibit in Banjoland.

Trivia

  • Beehives and Quarrie are the only enemies of Banjo Kazooie that don't move and don't hurt Banjo and Kazooie.
  • Even though the beehives don't speak in Banjo-Tooie, their head icon can still be seen in the Tower of Tragedy quiz.
  • The bees that surround the bee hive in the XBLA versions are the same as the bee that appears on Soggy's dress in Banjo-Tooie.
