Fabulous playthrough from two of my favorite Murphs!! Two corrections Mike: 1) Bees don't cool down the honey, they fan to evaporate the moisture content and turn nectar to thick honey. 2). At PAXU 2018, Paula Deming was on your left.

@TheKiltedKraut2 жыл бұрын
At the 7:50 mark, Mike said that bees flap their wings in order to cool down the honey in the hive. This is not true!! Although bees will beat their wings in order to cool off the hive in general on hot days during the spring, summer and fall...the actual reason they beat their wings (as it relates to honey) is to condense the nectar (remove water from the cell) to get it down to a very specific percentage of water which stabilizes the honey.

This is true I shall go apologize to the nearest hive for I have wronged the poor bees

I went to Barnes & Noble yesterday to buy a book for a friend and decided to treat myself as well with a book. I just browsed the board game section and wasn’t expecting to pick anything up, but I saw this one and heard a lot of good things, so I just impulse bought it. Now I know how to play and it seems very fun and quick. I also bought Waggle Dance online a few days back with a Labor Day sale so when that comes in, I’ll have two new bee board games.

Hey Guys, I'm pretty sure you won't see this comment at the bottom of the comment section & I also don't want to be that guy but I really have that "itch" to let Nick know that it's NOT milk thistle that you want to be telling people to plant in California for monarch butterflies! Milk thistle is an invasive plant from Europe and not at all what you want to plant for pollinators. You are thinking about Milkweed & there are about 5 kinds native to California that monarchs need. The Xerces society (for bug Nerds!) has some great info on this.

@@TheBrothersMurph should also add that really enjoy your content and appreciate the message about the importance of pollinators. California is actually trying real hard to understand the status of our native bees right now and I think anyone in the state can volunteer to help in your area if you look up the CA Bumble Bee Atlas project, they are taking on volunteers.
