Good Bee (eBook, ePUB)

A Celebration of Bees - And How to Save Them

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Bees are our most loyal ally. These fascinating, enigmatic creatures are a key lynchpin in the working of our planet. Without them the landscape, as well as every aisle in our supermarkets would look radically different. And were not just talking about honey bees. There are more than 20,000 species of bee worldwide and only a handful make honey. Some live in colonies and others are solitary. We can all help protect them and they desperately need protecting but you cant save what you dont love. And you cant love what you dont know. The Good Bee is a celebration of this most vital and mysterious of natures wizards. Here youll discover the complexities of bee behaviour as well as the bits that still baffle us the part they play in the natural world, their relationship with us throughout history, how they are coming under threat and what we can all do about it. Beautifully produced, with hand-made illustrations throughout, it is a story for our times and a book to treasure.
