Just curious I did some quick reading about honey bees yesterday and they said that some queens can live up to 7 years. The poor old drone that is basically just looking for his one time to mate with a queen will regret it as the queen snatches his penis off and he dies. When late fall starts cooling off the workers will kill off almost all of the drones so they don't have to feed them.

Sounds bloody awful for the drones, eh? LOL!


Be kind to one another and tell the ones you love that you love them often. We never know what tomorrow will bring.

That's right. They don't wait until fall around here though. We have a long summer dearth (techincal term for when there is no natural bee forage available) and the bees will kill the drones when it starts.

I was on a mission trip week before last, and I was recovering from the mission trip last week. smile
