Honeybees aren't just beating wild pollinators to the nectar, they're shoving them off flowers. A two-year UK study found honeybees chasing away bumblebees and hoverflies; doubling honeybee density cut bumblebee visits by 14%.

I roasted some Honeybee squash for dinner tonight.

The next wave of peonies are coming out while the bee activity is dramatically increasing throughout the garden. I’ve seen European honeybees, bumblebees and native bees all on the same plant.
