In the February issue of Bee Culture, Malcolm Sanford has an 
excellent article ("A New Nosema" — "The symptoms are similar to other 
conditions described as 'Autumn collapse,' 'Spring dwindling,' 
'disappearing trick" (Australia), 'mal de mayo' in some 
Spanish-speaking countries, and 'May disease' in France.").

caterpillar crawled off my shirt sleeve onto my hand.  Where did that 
come from?)
