This is a twist on our traditional ideas about honeybees living in hives with a queen. Like the idea of including a child who is afraid of bees and how his interest in beesgrows. Would be fun to build a bee hotel! Lovely sharel

What a great idea. Much better than the little guys swarming over a tree limb where they scare everyone!

Much luck to Alison with this one. I know the population of many insects is on the downturn, but few are as important as bees.
