All my beekeeping buddies are men older than me. :) There are a few women in our beekeeping association, but I think I can count them on one hand. I think that is changing somewhat, but around here not so much!!<br /><br />Hope the wind didn't damage anything there!Knatoleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03809822081515082096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10685986.post-52297987807492352042012-10-20T20:10:02.816-04:002012-10-20T20:10:02.816-04:00I do, it's true.

It makes me really happy to think my photos are helping with that! Of course, I think I go overboard in the other direction, since anyone hanging around my garden will hear me talking sweetly to the bees! :)<br /><br />Thanks for the article link too! I loved it and I just marvel at their intelligence, and how the hive works as a whole.<br /><br />Thanks for the lovely comment! :)Knatoleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03809822081515082096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10685986.post-69723246207608735872012-10-19T11:20:32.602-04:002012-10-19T11:20:32.602-04:00First off, thanks to you and your blog, I'm co...First off, thanks to you and your blog, I'm coaching myself not to be such a wimp when it comes to bees. Long ago a bad experience caused me to develop almost a phobia of them and it's been a hard thing to conquer. Your photos of these little creatures really do paint them in a different light than the one I have always seen them in, so thank you for that. Second, I saw this yesterday and thought of you: It's called The Thinking Bee and it talks about how smart these little creatures really are: http://myscienceacademy.org/2012/10/18/3596/ Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10685986.post-5229526291247263182012-10-18T11:57:03.756-04:002012-10-18T11:57:03.756-04:00Ah well you've gotten so many great macros tho...Ah well you've gotten so many great macros thoughjams o donnellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17315325008175184363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10685986.post-74217852136584264962012-10-18T06:01:10.985-04:002012-10-18T06:01:10.985-04:00You really love them *smile*.
