Bee Photo by: Dorling Kindersley Bee, common name for a winged, flower-feeding insect with branched body hairs. Characteristics Bees are dependent on pollen as a protein source and on flower nectar or oils as an energy source. Adult females collect pollen primarily to feed their larvae. The pollen they inevitably lose in going from flower to flower is important to plants because some pollen lands on the pistils (reproductive structures) of other flowers of the same species, resulting in cross-pollination (see Pollination). Bees are, in fact, the most important pollinating insects, and their interdependence with plants makes them an excellent example of the type of symbiosis known as mutualism, an association between unlike organisms that is beneficial to both parties. Most bees have specialized branched or feathery body hairs that help in the collection of pollen. Female bees, like many other hymenopterans, have a defensive sting. Some bees produce honey from flower nectar. Honey bees and stingless bees commonly hoard large quantities of honey-a characteristic that is exploited by beekeepers, who harvest the honey for human consumption (see Beekeeping). click to enlarge Photo by: Larry Crowhurst/Oxford Scientific Films There are about 20,000 species of bees worldwide. Some species may not yet have been discovered, and many are either not named or have not been well studied. Bees are found throughout the world except at the highest altitudes, in polar regions, and on some small oceanic islands. The greatest diversity of bee species is found in warm, arid or semiarid areas, especially in the American Southwest and Mexico. Bees range in size from tiny species only 2 mm (0.08 in) in length to rather large insects up to 4 cm (1.6 in) long. Many bees are black or gray, but others are bright yellow, red, or metallic green or blue.

If you wish to delay emergence so bees are synchronized with late blooming fruit trees such as apple, bees should be in cold storage (36 - 38 o F, e.g., in a non-frost free refrigerator where humidity is not too low). Set bees in the field about a week before bloom. It's a good time to check loose cocoons to be sure your bees are healthy. Bring 4-5 small cocoons indoors in a transparent container. Males should start to emerge within 2-3 days. They may continue to emerge for 5-7 days. New book on bees as crop pollinators available: " For Nonnative Crops, Whence Pollinators of the future?

A Webquest for 3rd through 5th Grade Designed by Amy Gantzert gantzert4@fyidwight.net INTRODUCTION Have you ever wondered how honey bees make honey? Did you know honey bees are a very important part of the pollination process? A Honey bee is no ordinary insect, but rather an extraordinary insect! Honey bees are amazing creatures! Unfortunately, that's not how the executives at Ridit Pest Control see them. Like many people, the executives at Ridit think honey bees are just pesky insects! They are currently working on the development of a special pesticide that will "wipe out" all honey bees around the world and make them extinct. We need your help in saving the honey bees! TASK You will visit several websites to learn about honeybees. After researching these fascinating insects, you will complete the following two assignments: Draw and color a picture of a flower. Next, draw and color the same flower the way a honeybee would see it. In groups of 3 or 4, write a letter to the executives at Ridit Pest Control persuading them to

The Hamilton Menthol Board For the treatment of Tracheal Mites Tracheal Mites Tracheal mites are too small to be seen by the naked eye. To detect them, you would need a microscope and laboratory facilities. Tracheal mites make for bad wintering, poor honey production, and decreased bee vigor. Winter mortality may be indicated by a fairly sudden collapse of colonies, especially in the snow immediately in front of the hives as the bees crawl out, loaded with fecal matter, with an abundance of honey left inside the hive. (1) Therefore, it is important to test and be aware of any tracheal mite infestation in your hives. C. Peng Several life stages of stained honey bee tracheal mites are visible in the cleared trachea of an adult honey bee. (2) Treatment Menthol has proven to be an effective treatment for tracheal mite control. The menthol needs to vaporize inside the hive to be effective. Various forms of treating with menthol have been developed. Crystals may be introduced into the hives, loose on the bottom board, placed on a towel over the brood nest, or put into a paper bag with holes punched in and hung on a frame. Temperatures need to be above 70 F (21 C) for the menthol to vaporize and be effective. Some beekeepers treat mites with vegetable oil. This reduces the ability of the mite to find young hosts and spread.

The Buzz About Bees A Web Quest on Honey Bees by Chris Elrod Introduction Task Process Resources ... Conclusion Introduction In our unit on plant growth and development we have been studying the life cycle of plants. We have just begun to study pollination and the role that honey bees play in this stage of a plant's life. But did you know that bees are facing many threats to their survival and that their population is decreasing at an alarming rate? Bees are more important to us than you might think. What will happen if we do not have enough bees? Buzz back to top The Task The local beekeepers association has learned that you have been studying the life cycle of plants and the role bees play in pollination. They are concerned that the public is not aware of the decrease in the honey bee population and the consequences of not having enough honey bees. They want you to produce a two minute commercial that educates the public on the importance of honey bees. You and your team will investigate several different resources and gather information to create a commercial that addresses these issues. Buzz back to top The Process Step One Before you can begin to create your commercial, you will be assigned to a team of 3 students to gather the information you need. In your team, each of you will be given a role in collecting information. Here is a list of roles and responsibilities:

137. Hiking England Personal description by Tom and Veralyn Davids, of the route, going from St bees to Robin Hood's Bay. Not a description of the route, but general thoughts on some interesting aspects of hiking this trail. http://www.weeklywalker.com/Footnotes/England.htm

WEEKLY WALKER By Tom Davids Hiking England Coast-To-Coast “I wandered lonely as a cloud That floats on high o’er vales and hills When all at once I saw a crowd, A host of golden daffodils. . .” by William Wordsworth, who walked some 175,000 miles in his lifetime, mostly in the Lake District, England One of my favorite books for dreaming is “Classic Walks of the World” edited by Walt Unsworth. The book features 17 walks that include such favorites as the Milford Trail in New Zealand, the John Muir Trail in California, the Cordillera Blanca Trek in Peru, and the trek to the base of Mount Everest in Nepal. It also reviews a famous walk in England, the Pennine Way, but it does not include the “classic” walk that my wife Veralyn and I just completed—the Coast-to-Coast Walk from St. Bee’s on the west coast (Irish Sea) to Robin Hood’s Bay on the east coast (North Sea). This is not an “official” trail, but a combination of public footpaths and country roads. The total distance of the Coast-to-Coast Trail is 190 miles, but we reduced the hiking mileage to 120 miles by driving across the less scenic farming areas while hiking through three national parks—the Lake District, the Yorkshire Dales, and the North York Moors. For the active walker, England is just short of paradise, with a lifetime of destinations. Post a map of England on the wall, close your eyes, and point to any part of the map, and you’re likely to be only a stone’s throw from a public pathway.

People Abstract This publication discusses using solitary or native bees as pollinators. Some of the larger groups of bees are discussed, including alkali bees, leafcutter bees, alfalfa leafcutter bees, bumblebees, sweat bees, squash bees, digger bees, orchard mason bees, shaggy fuzzyfoot bees, and hornfaced bees. Information is also presented on how to attract and conserve populations of wild bees for pollination purposes. There is also a list of suppliers of native bees and bee equipment. Go To Top Introduction There are more than 3500 species of solitary bees in North America. Also called pollen bees or native bees, these efficient pollinators often do the lion's share of pollinating crops. Pollen bees have a number of advantages over honeybees as pollinators
