If she was but a half-ass good looking girl no one would know her name because they like 9000000000 males doing this but none are like her with fame I wonder why??? I did a servery and 99.9 male got it right and almost every female wrong wonder why.

      @@beckyhobson3283Agree and there are a lot of haters around. I would rather tell some one politely if they are wrong For instance Erika is totally wrong about Drones and the life span of the Queen They can live 7 years I still have one of my Queens from 2017 its now 2023 She is now producing a lot of Drones this year so might be her last but still going strong. Maybe commercially bred weaker bees live shorter lives

      I was working construction in a large building that was about half way done , I was sitting there having a smoke and I looked at the ground and saw a bee laying there, not dead, somehow I thought, it is probably lost and ran out of energy trying to find it's way out. I saw a mostly empty bottle of pop laying beside me so I poured a tiny little puddle of it close to the bee, hoping it would smell the sugar and have some.
      The next day I went to the same spot and the bee was gone, I like to think it ate up the sugar and had new found energy and left! :)

It so happens that sometimes there are bees who steals the honey for themselves and some drink it so much that they get drunk with honey.

I remember him telling us lots of interesting bee stories, bee facts, and his own observations. We loved it as kids. And now his son- my uncle, my dad, and my husband- also picked up this trade.

Grandpa was a self-taught beekeeper, with immense knowledge and respect in the community. Unfortunately after he passed away we weren’t able to continue with this passion. We gave away the bees and some of the equipment to other beekeepers from the area who had know him. We kept some stuff for ourselves as mementos.

    This girl so freakin awesome! I’m not personally a fan of insects or bees. But she really does fantastic job of collecting and saving bees.
