Bee hat is a 15-bit still life that is a siamization of a beehive and a hungry hat.

Commonness

Bee hat is the seventy-fifth most common still life in Achim Flammenkamp's census, being less common than cis-loaf with tail but more common than trans-rotated R-bee.^[1] It is also the eighty-eighth most common object on Adam P. Goucher's Catagolue.^[2]

On April 29, 2007 Dean Hickerson found a 4-glider synthesis of this still life.^[3]
