In all of the articles that mention the colony collapse disorder that's
affecting the commercial honeybee industry, there's no mention of the
disorder affecting any of the feral honeybees. Anyone run across such
info? Just curious.... Pat





Hmmm...I was reading that feral bees were unaffected which is why
they're concentrating on the beekeeper's practices as being the cause.
Apparently, word is that organic beekeepers are not having the same
problems.

Certainly, the feral bees seem to be around here in normal numbers.
