Nouvelle-Ecosse
Victime d'un putsch, la reine s'enfuit avec 40 000 abeilles.
Such was the title of a small article in today's paper. I loved it.
Apparently, bees sometimes have putsches, when worker bees consider they are not getting enough Royal Jelly. They secretely bred another queen and the original one fled with her partisans. Neighbors are asked to look for the fleeing regime, which apparently does not look like a bunch of flying insects but rather like a small brown bear…
Delightful inn'it?
How did Shakespeare put it? "There are more things in heaven and earth…"
I LOVED this article! I read it too, and thought I should post about it....you beat me to it!
