The beekeeper at our club told me that bees don't winter over very well in northern
michigan. *He has to buy some new ones every year.

He also told me that the african bees don't like our weather either and die off.

I wonder if remoted speaker audio from the cell phones would agitate
bees.

Do wireless (vs wired) cameras observing the hive also bother them?
