World's bees face multiple threats

Keeping bees is great

I agree.

I'm allowed to keep bees at work so when we're done in the basement working on IT I and our team can pop around the corner into my apiary and relax and have lunch. Lovely.

I also find that small talk is much improved when I drop IT and talk bees instead. People genuinely find it more interesting.

The two greys that regularly dig up my runner bean seeds will instead be filling me up once I get my new squirrel trap delivered. My Dad has some good recipes for squirrel including squirrel in beer pie.
