I am running beehind on some GREAT finds and links to my bee spotting posts. Is anybody else running behind on anything these days?...no need to answer that. Actually anyone who is ahead of themselves, has nothing to do and suffering from boredom feel free to say hi. Then the rest of us are moving in so you have something to do.
Even if you are busy with a ton to do you should watch this video I found on Bees for a cause. I was highly entertained this morning by the silliness of this in the beginning, but watch through the very end. Silly=powerful message. Bees communicate to others via dance and movement. They tell others where the good stuff is, how far away it is, etc. I ask you to watch the dancers and the movement, there is some very good interpretation here.
I would also like everyone to know that Sandra Dieckmann has self published her book "The Bumble Bear and the Grizzly Bee". Currently she is self publishing but is asking if anyone has any information on publishing an easier way she would love to hear from you. Sandra also has a flash version of the story where you can hear her read this story in her cute, animated voice, and view all of her amazing art and illustration.
A big thank you to m.heart for informing me about the Beehive building below that will allow researchers to study plants and social insects like ants and bees. Click on the link above for more details.
I also think this post has the makings for a fun story as well.
An Anthropologie must see here at House Wren Studio which prompted me to search more and discover this set on Flickr (thank you ~*~Patty). I am going to try the "blog this button" in a minute to show one of the fabulous hives made from recycled items but in case it does not work out to fabulous set of photos.
a bit random and a bit rambly today, computer time is really adding up and art time is suffering! Thank you to all who help make this post possible!
