Bees & Beekeeping

Where are the bees?

12 years ago

There are no bees in my garden this year. There are no bees on the clover in the yard or in the field behind my property. Friends in other locations of the city have bees. Where are mine? I love them and I miss them. My vegetables really miss them. Blossoms are dropping. It's possible this is heat related, but still, it is strangely quiet without the bees.
