>Interesting, and will remain so as spring approaches.  I wonder what happened on 25th Jan.  Mice in the hive?  Snow on the roof?  Bees that left on the previous day decided that they were not dead after all and flew back home?!  Not at those temperatures, so must have been a snowfall?

I really don't know, but I can see why experimenters are tempted to cook the data or select fromt he data set to make things look neat.   Many people would find that inconsitency embarrassing.  I just don't know.  It is what it is, I guess.

One could assume that the spike before and the subsequent drop net out to what we would expect, but I have to say again that I just do not know.  Maybe there is some important apian anti-gravity effect that has heretofore remained undiscovered becasue everyone has papered it over.

I like the mice theory, but it would have had to be a herd of mice for that change.  Sanow?  There was no snow event at the time.  Wind has an effect, but there was no wind that day.

What would life be without mysteries?
