Bumblebees vs Honeybees vs Yellowjackets!!
Today I pulled out my water colors for the first time in a very long time. I really want to get back into the habit of drawing and painting again. Naturally, I drew my favorite insect based off my most recent tattoo.
Bee Fact!
Did you know that bees “hear” by sensing different vibration patterns in the air however they cannot distinguish sounds like we can? This means bees can’t listen to Kanye West!!
In flight
So cool
Bees are cool, protect them!
Two research teams, in Turkey and Iran, both recently discovered an incredibly rare species of bees. Coined the Osmia (Ozbekosima) avoseta bee, the insects use colorful flower petals to create papier-mache cocoons for their offspring. NPR reports: "Building a nest takes a day or two, and the female might create about 10 nests in total, often right next to each other. To begin construction, she bites the petals off of flowers and flies each petal -- one by one -- back to the nest, a peanut-sized burrow in the ground. She then shapes the multi-colored petals into a cocoon-like structure
Mantle of Bees
Every year, beekeeper Wang Dalin, 40, covers his body in a mantle of 50,000 bees to raise awareness about alternatives to fertilizer for farming. Here he is yesterday at Chenjiawan village of Zigui County in Yichang, Hubei Province.
As the effects of Colony Collapse Disorder become more, ominous corporations, activists, and artists pitch in to save the bees. Burt’s Bees is donating a portion of its profits to Honey Bee Health as is Haagen-Dazs who have created delicious Vanilla Honey-Bee flavored ice cream. A collective of artists called A New Hive is creating amazing artwork involving live bees to benefit the cause.

What you can do: Reduce or eliminate pesticides in your landscape and home. Do not assume a pesticide is safe for you or the environment even though it has been registered by the Environmental Protection Agency and can be legally used. Read the label.
