Abstract
There ape many reasons individuals get into bees. Some like the sideline in come. Others ape amateur scientists. Still others enjoy getting outdoors in the summer. A few welcome the woodworking projects the activity can entail . But, whatever the motive, every hobbyist must carry deep in his/her head a sense of the amazement, of the wonder, of the magic of bees. For even tho ugh the activity is based on science, there are some parts science does not adequately explain. I will enumerate those wondrous aspects, as I see them . If nothing else, the following will better help the hobbyist articulate h is own reverence.
