One of the beekeepers here at the U (there's 3 of us and an ex so far) finally made it out to his hive and found his bees dead. He couldn't figure out why though, so I said I'd ask you folks... He said that it looked like they were an exhibit in a museum. They were all over the frames like they were working on them as usual, but not moving. They weren't all balled up and there was a lot of stores, with hardly any dead bees on the bottom board. Any clues? I told him to put some in a jar to get them tested. What's the address to send them to? Luckily he ordered a package, just to be on the safe side. Also I checked my bee books and magazines and couldn't come up with an answer to "what do bees do at night, do they sleep?" Anyone have an answer for that one? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dave D.
