Today’s LA CityBeat has an environmental theme, which gave me a chance to put together all the information I’ve been gathering on disappearing bees over the last month or so. I also bid a less than fond farewell to the old fool Dom Imus.

Regarding the bee situation, here in Dorset in the UK I have a 45ft pear tree at the top of the garden. Currently in full blossom, standing beneath this tree it absolutely 'hums' with several thousand 'busy bees' collecting the nectar.
It should be noted and is interesting that bees move around the garden following the blossom warmed by the sun on its pathway from East to West, and the nectar warm enough, say, for them to collect in the am is too cold and therefore not liquid enough for collection by the pm.
I learned this fact and have noticed its truth since reading about it in a between-the-wars library book on bee keeping.
