Greetings to all in our hive, both near and far, in this month of September. The summer seemed to fly quickly, and in a couple of weeks, it will officially be fall. How did that happen? In the backyard, I see the bees are busy flying from one flower to another, despite the heat we\u2019ve been having.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I find it fascinating to watch them on their journey, as they seem to have a way of never getting upset with one another if they both land on the same flower, or crawl up the same long Gabriel\u2019s Trumpet plant as another bee. Yesterday morning, I saw three bees climbing way up the same stamen, and none of them seemed particularly bothered by the other. It\u2019s a good lesson for humans, and it was sweet to see.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As another example, check out this video of hummingbirds and bees sharing a hummingbird feeder. They had no problem whatsoever getting along with one another, even though they all wanted the same food! Talk about a sweet sight! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
