There was also a Radio 4 "The Living World" feature on sunday moring at 06:30 ish. Click here to listen again. Lionel Kellaway was with a military beekeeper on Salisbury Plain.

And there was a piece in the Guardian Magazine Saturday just gone, about the colony collapse disorder in the US and how it is affecting Europe. Online link is here, but the article has been rubbished as old news & inaccurate by a chap in our local group.

Bee stories are everywhere right now.
