Pollinators

Honeybee having lots of work to do if we are to eat--they are responsible for the pollination of the food crops people consume. Every time you spray insect killer on flowers or on any plant, it will linger there and kill any honeybee. This has led to colony collapse and hives are dieing all over the land. You need to plant flowers that bees are attracted to and then make sure you do not use chemicals to kill anything, including weed killer.

    I really like the honeybees and I pray that people will stop killing them by using pesticides on flowers or other plants that bees might land on.

    Hi Abe! I see you're still blogging then! I lost track of you when you started up a lot of different blogs. I found your comment on Alan Burnett's blog and immediately recognized your photo of you in the military. I liked your last blog of you climbing up that volcano when you were a young man. Nothing gets any easier when you get old. Keep plugging away and I will try to visit you again.
