Sounds fascinating.<br /><br />Yes, bees are not always busy from what I've been told. Sometimes, they just like to be.PJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12059415005282675289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2883979841111173610.post-17171806539966584362011-09-09T16:28:38.928-04:002011-09-09T16:28:38.928-04:00I'm with PA here, what an odd poem.
