I’m a fan of bees

I came across this banner the other day and how could I not agree, spelling mistakes and all. It reads: Without bees there is no beer – that’s why we are protesting here.

And here is message from the bees themselves, presumably:

Looking at you humans we notice you are doing as badly as we are: chomping down on too many insecticides and pesticides, there are too many built-up areas and too few wilderness areas. If you carefully observe us bees here at this hotel as well as our cousins in the wild, you will be able to perceive how you yourselves are doing. Kind regards, the bees.

Hence: Watch out for bees below!

More circular holes for solitary bees to retire in.

If you observe us and our relatives living in the wild closely, you will be able to recognise how your yourselves are faring.   Love, the hotel bees.
