Now the queen's dead what will the bees do?

[purplepoppy]

In a centuries old tradition the Bee Keeper wraps a black ribbon around the hives, knocks on the hive and informs the bees that the Queen has died, but not to worry as they have a new owner and that they should carry on.

Here's a link www.dailymail.co.uk/.../...g-Charles-new-boss.html (yes I know it's the mail but you can find the story elsewhere)

The actual words spoken are "You knock on each hive and say, ‘The mistress is dead, but don't you go. Your master will be a good master to you"

So question is will the bees stay or go?

They'll stay

They'll buzz off

If I were a BEE , Id take one look at " Charles in Charge " and go find myself a different Queen bee , assuming I was a worker bee , the lifespan ins limited so you have to make the most of it.

The faces may change but the game is still the same.


Lets continue a traditionise an idea of one family being the one above all.

The bees will stay but there's an unconfirmed report that one of the Ravens in the Tower has disappeared.

Bees are actually great pollenticians

They'll probably wax poetic and then ask for more honey

And shorter working flowers

The will seek to establish new honeycomb...
