bees are probly smokin bath salts, not a fly.
Interesting, San Francisco and Sioux Falls.....so far.
Crap! Not again.
They found a parasitic fly that was reported by this same person back in January. Here is a link: http://news.yahoo.com/zombie-fly-parasite-killing-honeybees-230200867.html (http://news.yahoo.com/zombie-fly-parasite-killing-honeybees-230200867.html)
Funny how we discussed this back 7 months ago, and I commented that researchers and bee labs would be lining up for grants and seeking funds to do fly research. Oh wait.....this is what this article is all about. ;)
Never mind. :roll:
Mike, how much in research funds did you ask for? :-D
