In the welter of information about the contemporary problems associated with the honey bee and beekeeping, it is easy to forget the joy of the experience of bees in our anxiety to keep things working. 

As a BBC Radio 3 listener for decades before bees came into my life, I was delighted to hear a programme devoted to writing about bees. Entitled “Bee writing” I found the programme really thoughtful and sensitive in it’s portrayal of our little favourites. Well worth the 45 minutes listening.
