what are the bees trying to tell us?

Why are honeybees dying at such an alarming rate? "Colony collapse disorder" – but a name hardly explains this mystery. So far, not surprisingly, the focus is on financial injury to human farmers, from lack of pollination services, and not on the suffering and death of the bees.

"A detailed, up-to-date report on Colony Collapse Disorder can be found on the Mid-Atlantic Apiculture Research and Extension Consortium Web site at
