    I’m going with beekeeping as my “field” because it’s my main hobby now I’m retired. So. Many. Misconceptions. The Bee Movie was not a documentary, people! The mating process for honeybees is horrifying and you don’t want to know. Male bees have one job, and then they die. If they don’t do that job, they still die; their sisters kick them out at the end of summer. Plus, I was talking to someone the other day who didn’t realise we let the bees just roam around.

        Nope, the bees are never in one place. They roam from town to town

          I wonder how many of us instantly wrote bee-versions of the lyrics?

          The saxophone solo is definitely now done by bees.
