We've had a shortage of honey bees here in Northeastern Pennsylvania the past few years, but I have been able to observe bumblebees up close as they tend to the rhododendron by our back steps.D.B.

I've had to take down my owl boxes because of them! The little screech-owls have had to look elsewhere for a home. I do love bees, however, and your post taught me several things I did not know.

It's funny but I just read about cleansing flights the other day in a book and then a new friend who is setting up an apiary mentioned it -- I seem to be coming across it everywhere lately :-)<br /><br />Wonderful photos, I especially liked the one that explained the part of the female worker bee -- since it's not likely I'll get that close to a live one anytime soon.<br /><br />Visiting via Camera Critters.<br /><br />Marie<br />bonkersinbarnhart.comMariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09294856404741431282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12261260.post-40294297285804972462011-01-29T14:16:52.638-06:002011-01-29T14:16:52.638-06:00Great post I never knew any of these facts.

And we're going to get more on Wednesday, and as Joe Bastardi says: "And if the stars and planets line up, New England could expect up to 2 more feet of snow."<br />I do not like Joe Bastardi.abbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08879476262337290531noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12261260.post-45458005539524368032011-01-29T05:12:19.694-06:002011-01-29T05:12:19.694-06:00I look forward to seeing more honeybees this summe...I look forward to seeing more honeybees this summer. We didn't see many here last summer. We have been covered up with snow most of this winter and it has not been very warm for a long time. Nothing close to 70 but maybe closer to 50ยบ now and then.
