I've never had my bees where I can sit and watch them like now in the back yard.
Either I've missed a lot or age makes me appreciate the simple things.
My bees have to fly up about 4.5 feet to get over the fence and then ZOOM!
When they return I wonder why they do not crash!
Amazing creatures. Amazing.
Agreed!

My niece ask me not long ago about aging. My answer was, I am slower, not as strong, teeth are issues, hearing is not as well as when young, HOWEVER, contrary to public thought my eye site has improved tremendously with aging. For now I see beautiful things that I was blind to as a kid. Beautiful things everywhere I look that I overlooked when younger. Yes Sir, eye site improves with age.

LOVE THIS !
A cousin was asking for a -beecam-. I captured this on a typical day and tossed it up on youtube. Uses the slow-mo feature on the iPhone.
It is a setting similar to what you describe, with a 6 foot neighbourly fence they have to rise over to get to the nearby field.
This link is one of three videos of the theme to view. For best effect, Watch all three of them on the largest screen you have available to cast to.
Check it out. ENJOY!

Nice video THP.
It is amazing that with all of those bees coming and going, I never saw one collision.
I like how you could here each cylinder firing as the motorcycle drove by. At least it sounded like it.
