hello everyone.
does anyone out there keep bumblebees? i am currently writing a
research paper on bumblebees and found some information suggesting
that it is possible to "keep" these bees, too. does anyone on this
list keep these interesting bees?
i have found several nice books that address bumblebees specifically,
including _bumblebee economics_ (bernd heinrich is a wonderful writer,
in my opinion), _bumblebees_ by albert (this talks mostly about
british bumblebee species) and otto plath's _bumblebees and their
ways_. despite these three books, there really isn't much information
out there that specifically talks about bumblebees, even in the
research literature (biosis, expanded academic index, and medline
searches yielded very little information about bumblebees).
does anyone know of another source of bumblebee info that i might
have missed?
thanks for your time.
