"In my hives are nurse bees, worker bees, drones, the queen, funeral bees that cart out the dead, and guard bees, that make sure bees from other hives don't get in. No, I don't think this is all random."
----------
I've heard it said that nature is a silent sermon. If that’s true, then my friend, Tom Kennish, has 130,000 preachers buzzing in his backyard. Tom’s a beekeeper and his bees are as organized as the Vatican on Easter Sunday. Nurses, workers, foragers, guards, and even funeral bees, all doing their jobs without coffee breaks or union demands.
In this episode, we talk about honeybees, monarch butterflies, ants, and the divine fingerprints you can see in creation—if you take the time to look. Nature is speaking… are we listening?
Enjoy the podcast!

| 0:18.1 | To take out the dead soldiers. They also have guard bees that are at the |

I like that. Nature, a silent sermon. |
