--------------------
This is a bee patch. It is a simplified, basic drawing of what is commonly known as the domesticated "european" honey bee.
There are more than 20,000 species of bees in the world. Of honey bees, there are now determined to be seven, with some 44 subspecies. Having originated in South Asia over a million years ago, Apis mellifera - the most widely spread species of honey bee - has lived in tandem with human beings since the age of the pyramids. Now, due to Colony Collapse Disorder - mass bee deaths with an unknown cause, thousands of bed have dissapeared from their hives.... Unless something changes, the wide reaching effects upon ecosystem dynamics and human food crops could be devastating...
