Honey bees

Yesterday while sitting on my deck I looked down at my feet and saw a honey bee.   I was glad he was alive and gathering pollen.  We all know and have heard about the great honey bee die off caused by mostly environmental factors, etc. spraying, illness induced  mites...whatever the source, our beloved bees are dying off.  It is and continues sad to think we are destroying the planet we live on and are in a race to do so.
