'The Lives of Bees', T.Seeley, Chpt 9

HomesteadHensandHoney

I'm back with the book review that never ends! Today, we learn all about how bees regulate the temperature of their brood nest; how they generate heat via their flight muscles; and how wild nest cavities provide key insulation advantages to the wood-ware we use in our managed apiaries.

Please see my website for photos from the book chapter.

Also, please note that I erroneously say that the University of Graz is located in Australia; this was a slip of the tongue. It's actually located in AUSTRIA. Sorry about that!

Thank you for listening! And please take care of yourselves. Stay safe out there!
