We’re a lot more like bees than we think…Our hives are just taller.

most water dishes and birdbaths are too deep and the bees drown. You have to put stones in the birdbaths, or dishes, so they can sit on them and not fall into the water.
Plant bee friendly flowers
Bees keep us alive. They are wonderful insects who are intelligent and beautiful. Please help them…we must provide for their needs because WE are the ones who are killing them. Thank you. Love a bee. Love all the bees we owe them… big time.
Inside hive
I tried, but the bees refused to stand still and smile…so. The hive is encased in glass and each year the Chicago Botanic Garden has a beekeeper put a hive in the enclosure. The bees go home when fall moves in. It’s interesting, to say the least. The entrance is higher up on the outside of the roof. They work very hard so that we can live. I’m grateful to them.
