8 Mar 2007 @ 00:39, by Unknown Bless you, bless you, bonny bee: Say, when will your wedding be? If it be tomorrow day, Take your wings and fly away. ---Lost Lyrics of an Old Nursery Rhyme A swarm of bees in May Is worth a load of hay; A swarm of bees in June Is worth a silver spoon; A swarm of bees in July Is not worth a fly. ---Nursery Rhyme Bees are flying off in search of pollen and nectar and simply never return to their colonies. And nobody knows why. More about this here (National Gepgraphic, July 21, 2006) and here (NY Times, February 27, 2007). It is estimated that one third of the human food supply depends on insect pollination, most of this accomplished by bees.
