We are also experiencing a loss of honey bees here in my little corner of the planet due to colony collapse.

We also need the bees to polinate, we didn't have as many blueberries and cherries and we feel it is due to lack of bees. I have even started thinking of becoming a bee keeper. I need to do some research on it first.<br /><br />Thanks for visiting at my blog. I appreciate your comments.<br /><br />Have a great day!!Carol Schockling Laweckihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00118585525880689940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6773419808528632842.post-45975631918669416252009-08-12T14:39:20.592+01:002009-08-12T14:39:20.592+01:00Hi Gina so many patterns to choose from aren't...Hi Gina so many patterns to choose from aren't there in tatland?! Tatskool - I think my neighbours havethe honey bees! Yea Maureen I've heard that expression "tell it to the bees" Honey is very expensive to buy here now, we used to get a lot from Australia - but no more, so know the reason why! But you are lucky having a local supply and it sounds wonderful.<br />St. Bartholomew was/is the patron saint of bees and his feast day is on 24th August, may be he could do something about the situation!!!Sally Kersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14689082516157330679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6773419808528632842.post-11400392556523238142009-08-12T00:30:43.327+01:002009-08-12T00:30:43.327+01:00And I ought to have added that because of the year...And I ought to have added that because of the years of drought here, there's a dire shortage of honey. It's become almost a luxury item in the supermarkets. We are so lucky to have a neighbour who keeps bees, their honey is made from pollen gathered from the local gum trees, and it's dark and delicious!Maureenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02383223698959645624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6773419808528632842.post-92213337521216034182009-08-12T00:28:02.534+01:002009-08-12T00:28:02.534+01:00Those bees look absolutely, realistically perfect ...Those bees look absolutely, realistically perfect on the candle!<br />It's supposed to be good luck, if you discover a beehive in your garden, and isn't there an old custom which says that if you have any significant happenings in your life, you have to "tell it to the bees"?<br />We have horrible paper wasps in our backyard, they are prone to stinging at the least provocation, and they like to congregate in the nooks and crannies of the canvas chairs outside, so that one has to be extremely vigilant when unfolding them!<br />Black and orange and not nice, I would never want to tat one.Maureenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02383223698959645624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6773419808528632842.post-59114794739838111382009-08-11T21:48:15.905+01:002009-08-11T21:48:15.905+01:00We have loads of bumblebees in the garden but narr...We have loads of bumblebees in the garden but narry a one honey bee.....do you?Tatskoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12282750261031558615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6773419808528632842.post-59607366049071888652009-08-11T21:01:18.244+01:002009-08-11T21:01:18.244+01:00So cute!
