I have a bottle of B & B. If I had more bees, it'd be B & B & B. I'm not sure I'd like that.


Thanks to Manifisto for the sig!

If you let them go and they come back on their own it was meant to bee

can we please get more bees now

NPR posted:

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has designated the rusty patched bumblebee an endangered species — the first such designation for a bumblebee and for a bee species in the continental U.S.

The protected status, which goes into effect on Feb. 10, includes requirements for federal protections and the development of a recovery plan. It also means that states with habitats for this species are eligible for federal funds.

"Today's Endangered Species listing is the best—and probably last—hope for the recovery of the rusty patched bumble bee," NRDC Senior Attorney Rebecca Riley said in a statement from the Xerces Society, which advocates for invertebrates. "Bumble bees are dying off, vanishing from our farms, gardens, and parks, where they were once found in great numbers."

True story I was hiking around the Cuyahoga National Park awhile back and I saw this white box sitting in this field so I walked up and was like "what is that? Is that an apiary?"

I got close enough to verify it was an apiary with a lot of bees so I was like "WHY YES THAT IS AN APIARY" and ran from the bees.

I don't like those bees that are like the really huge really loud bees that I don't think are aggressive but tend to scare the hell out of people.

as long as you don't stand directly in front of the bee door, you can get as close to an apiary as you like.

I think those are the carpentry bees that do work on your house and do a really good job. It's a shame there are no more bees of this type, or indeed any type, because I could really use a remodel.

How would the dog wear goggles and even more than that, who makes the goggles?


when you're getting more bees you need to make sure which type you are getting. some can only sting once, and if you're looking for a good sting experience that is gonna drastically reduce your sting per dollar value

Three empty beehives sway in the wind, hanging from a mostly-dead tree. It's surrounded by barren dirt, and the wind whistles hurriedly through the limp branches. Fifty yards away, a sickly fox is sitting. It gets up and walks away slowly in the opposite direction.

Blessed are the poor in nectar: for theirs is the hive of Honey.
Blessed are those who bumble: for they will be drones.
Blessed are the larvae: for they will inherit the fields.
Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for pollen: for their legs will be filled.
Blessed are the stingless: for they will not rip their butt off.
Blessed are the pure in spit: for they will make hexagons.
Blessed are the dancemakers: for they will bzzz bzzz bzzzz.

I actually literally used to keep mason bees. All they did was fly around and freak my cat out though, they don't make honey.

they might have had honey you didn't even know about, mason bees are very secretive. did you even learn the special handshake?

the best way to make more bees is to have a house full of bees

posting about bees, btw, is a guaranteed way to get more bees

The whole town piled in the waiting room that day, spilling along the hallway and into the medical suite.

Dr. Handel hovered over little Billy's swollen arm. The crowd murmured and gasped. Could it be.

Dr. Handel turned to all, a deep frown settling on his face, "It's just hives"

The crowd's eyes lit up, a quiet applause began.

Dr. Handel sighed.

also thanks for the reminder that I probably need to order bees soon

a few years ago i promised to let byob name bees, when the time comes, would byob like to help me dub a hive or two and decorate the bee boxes?
