Here's the buzz on "beeing" careful
Know what and where this is?
The "buzz" in town is that it's 10 behives. Where? On campus? Perhaps. Read on.
The hives are established to provide more honey bees to the area. For several reasons, the number of honey bees throughout the U.S. has dwindled at an alarming rate in recent years.
We need these pollinators for farm crops and flowers. Hopefully, these healthy hives will help pollinate area plants.
In the future, a wildflower area may be developed on campus; bees will be helpful then, as well.
Yes, this is a photo of 10 beehives. The bee "condos" are located between the woods and a mature stand of tall Northern Pampas grass, found northeast of the stadium. (Monty Siekerman)
