Needs shmeeds, have you seen the price of honey lately? :(
This is a common liberal trick. The ‘experts’ told us tire reefs would work...tire reefs were built...and when they didn’t work...well that part didn’t really make it above the fold in the paper. They just act like it never happened, and the ‘experts’ move on to other things.
I was joking about the picture. LOL
Yep:
“And, of course, planting wildflowers has nothing to do with saving bees. They, the bees, are having their populations decimated by a bacterial infection. They will, of course, survive. Bees have been around for hundreds of millions of years, since the first flowering plants. They are not stupid about bacteria.”
I agree, except God created bees on either day 5 or 6, “thousands” of years ago, not “millions”.
Investigating a site “Evidence against a recent creation”, I found all their “proof” specious at best. Some of their “science” actually helps a young earth position.
The others use qualifiers such as “likely, estimated, unlikely, generally, certain (examples), not taking into account , conjectured, In some cases, tend to, probably, classical, estimated, fairly unambiguously, great variability, varies greatly, assuming, using the normal rate, some places, estimates, estimated. Then it gets ridiculous, claiming and assuming things that just can’t be known. BILLIONS of years.
Just remember, science is true until it isn’t.
KNOWN FACT: ALL life comes from photosynthesis. OOPS!
Sea life discovered over a mile deep where no light exists.
KNOWN FACT: Shroud of Turan too new to be the burial cloth of Jesus. OOPS!
Sample carbon dated was from a repair area, not the original cloth.
KNOWN FACT: Oil is made by compressed plant matter over millions of years and there is no new oil being made, “Peak Oil”. OOPS!
Earths molten mantle is making new oil every day.
KNOWN FACT: Deepwater Horizon BP oil spill, catastrophic! OOPS!
But the microbes will eventually devour all of BP’s Gulf of Mexico oil spill—no matter where it ends up—except the heaviest, nastiest stuff.
KNOWN FACT: The earth is flat! OOPS! it isn’t. But they were so sure.
Ping!
In the woods, when you found bees collecting pollen or taking water, you would try to follow them back to the nesting tree. After donning protection, the tree was cut down and the honeycomb extracted.
This is were the phrase “ to make a beeline” comes from since bees fly straight to the hive when their pollen sacks are filled.
You mean the libtards who are whining about “invasive” species?
“Not sure I really appreciate all the caterwauling over “invasive” species.”
I agree. At first glance it makes sense but if you think about it, categorizing a species as “invasive” is pretty subjective.
I mean any species that ISN’T invasive was, once, at least.
Seeds get scattered all sorts of “natural” ways so like,
it’s hard for me to care.
If you are trying to maintain a particular habitat. . . say you are trying to maintain a mangrove swamp. . . well, I get it, you uproot any invasive plants or animals.
But that’s just because you decided to do a particular thing.
I’m not sure if I follow your comment. But Virgin queens will go to drone congregation areas, to mate and worker bees will travel up to 5 miles from their hive to forage, so there is a lot of opportunity for mites to transfer and infect other hives.
I do know varoa mites are my #1 problem.
