    I saw on tv (countryfile?) that sometimes the dying bees are drones who have mated. Their tackle rips off and they fall to earth to die :cry3:

    Not seen any dead ones this year, not seen many lives ones to be honest. Had the odd one fly at me like a SCUD when lifting the lid of the dalek. I usually do an African rain dance style jump and everything.

    Planting lots of wildlife seed this year and lobbed a couple of packets worth over the fence on the next door neighbours neglected garden too.
