Its fall now and I can't recall seeing or hearing of any new CCD reports since last winter and early spring. Are new cases not being reported in the news or online? or is there a seasonal nature to CCD that is mostly Nov-March? We hear occasionally of hives here on Bee-L crashing but no references to leaving brood behind and classic CCD symptoms. If it was a pathogen one would think that it would be randomly affecting anyone but yet Jerry B noted many of last years victims were repeats of the year before. **************************************************** * General Information About BEE-L is available at: * * http://www.honeybeeworld.com/bee-l/default.htm * ****************************************************
