Preparing my back-porch beehive is my favorite rite of spring, but this year my flock mysteriously went missing. I'll miss more than just the honey.
By Novella Carpenter [2007-03-13]

  • 95 percent? huh?

    I'm sorry, if 95 percent of the bees are gone, humanity itself is toast. Where did you get this number?

    Nice piece. I'm starting my first beehive this year (in fact, my husband is in the other room pulling nails out of boards for our first two Top Bar Hives). Beekeepers in our area are not reporting any colony collapse, thank goodness.
