A Tribute To Bees

The delicate interrelationships between bees and their environment appears effortlessness. Bees achieve incredible feats in their short lifetimes, in one day a single hive can pollinate over 250, 000 flowers. Despite their minute size, their ingenuity and hard work is a key element of the supporting environment in which we humans thrive. Their purely instinctive alliance with nature puts our efforts to build a sustainable society to shame. They operate with infinite precision and harmony in their surroundings. It is this stability which supports the shoddy attempts of humanity. Whilst us humans are a constant strain on the natural world bees have formed complex structures which operate with flawless accuracy. Masters of geometry, architecture and engineering their hives are an example of optimal efficiency whilst at the same time replenishing and perpetuating nature.
