We were exploring Canada's 'pocket desert' when we came upon this amazing battle! Bee vs. Red Ants!
AMAZING - It's like 2 alien species battling for supremacy. The difference in size is just one of the unique things, but there are more, bee's can fly ant's obviously can't. Never seen anything like this before.
Cindy filmed this since when I saw the bee's being agitated I thought it was best for me to stay away.
I love cherries, but it turns out these might be apricots trees getting pollinated by the bee's. Cherries are my favorite fruit, but I also love apricots, peaches, watermelon cantaloupe, almonds, mango's, garden ripened tomatoes, cucumbers and peppers. Plus many more, and the thing they have in common - bee's have to pollinate the flowers of the plants or there are no crop's.
By some estimates more than 30% of the global bee population has died off and this will have major consequences on all food production. This is not exclusive to North America. Bee's are dying all across the planet - The honey trap: How the demise of Britain's bees could cost us £1.8billion a year, Bee Emergency: Unexplained Mass Die-Off Hits German Hives,
European beekeepers observed similar phenomena in Belgium, France, the Netherlands, Greece, Italy, Portugal, and Spain, and initial reports have also come in from Switzerland and Germany, albeit to a lesser degree while the Northern Ireland Assembly received reports of a decline greater than 50%.Possible cases of CCD have also been reported in Taiwan since April 2007
