It must be a satire but for some reason I see less and less bees every year.

” but for some reason I see less and less bees every year.”

And far fewer butterflies and moths. I figured it was the lawn chemicals everyone is spraying. I won’t use them. Worst lawn in my neighborhood!

There has been much discussion in the press of colony collapse disorder, or something with a similar name. I was under the impression scientists did not know the cause yet.

Fewer bees make less honey.

Less Lady Bugs and Fire Flies, too.

Normally the clover patch in my yard is literally a buzzing orchestra of bees every spring.

Not this year.

I’ve seen exactly 3 bees this spring so far.
