I read an article that began, "What doesn't kill bees?" For all the talk of Colony Collapse Disorder, a nationwide phenomenon of vanishing colonies, I have approached my own hive as if mine were immune. But just as I can hardly live my life wondering when I'll end up under a truck, I can't wait poised for hive failure. This summer, my bees made enough honey to feed themselves through the winter. If we make it through, and I hope we do, then we can share.
