Hi All, I recently received a private email from a large commercial beekeeper. He suggests that Gary Naban and Steve Buchman, in their book The Forgotten Pollinators paint honeybees in a poor light. Has anyone else on the List read this for a comment? My friend also points out, as Jim does, that on the committees, native pollinator people outnumber honeybee people. To me, that means that we beekeepers aren't doing our job as well as the native pollinator folk are doing theirs. Jim, any suggestions as to how we can get beekeepers better represented?
