Book excerpt: Excerpt from Practical Beekeeping: Designed for the Use of the Beginner and Small Apiarist, Adapted to the State of Montana The tibia of the hind leg is modified to form a pollen basket known as the corbicula. This basket is formed simply by long curved hairs arranged along the edges of the attened and indent ed tibia, curving outward and over, enclosing, when filled, the pel let oi more or less adhesive pollen. The first tarsal joint is somewhat enlarged and greatly attened and has on its inner surface a series of rows of regularly arranged stiff, bristle-like hairs used by the bee in cleaning itself and known as combs. The use of these combs in collecting pollen will be spoken of at length in the next section on the habits of bees. There remain a 'few words to be said in regard to the foot. There is an interesting structure known as the foot pad or pulvillus located between the two forked claws Of the foot. This pad pro duces a secretion Of a sticky nature which enables the bee to cling to smooth surfaces, Its action is, Oi interest. The bee, normally walking upon the tips Of its claws, finds itself slipping, and in the struggle to stop itself the claws slip, and, in bending under, the sticky pad between them comes in contact with the surface. As the bee lifts the foot in taking another stride the claws, serve as a pry and the pad is pulled loose, beginning at one edge as one would pull or peal up a freshly stuck postage stamp. In this way the bee is enabled to crawl on as highly polished a surface as a win dow pane. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fascinating hobby; a remunerative business; or a globetrotting career? Which type of beekeeper do you want to be? It is entirely up to you: beekeeping can provide it all.Beekeeping can provide anyone with an interesting and useful hobby or a lucrative and rewarding business. It is recognised as a vital agricultural industry and can therefore also offer you a globe trotting career. The whole subject is, however, often shrouded in mystery and loaded with jargon, leaving many people unaware of its true potential or how to start. This book strips away all the mystery and explains step by step how - from day one - you can start beekeeping as a hobby; how you can progress to running a beekeeping business; or how you can start a career as a beekeeper which can quite easily take you all over the world. No other guide explains in such detail the true potential and accessibility of beekeeping or of being a beekeeper.

Download or read book Listening to the Bees written by Mark Winston and published by Harbour Publishing. This book was released on 2018-04-28 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Listening to the Bees is a collaborative exploration by two writers to illuminate the most profound human questions: Who are we? Who do we want to be in the world? Through the distinct but complementary lenses of science and poetry, Mark Winston and Renée Saklikar reflect on the tension of being an individual living in a society, and about the devastation wrought by overly intensive management of agricultural and urban habitats. Listening to the Bees takes readers into the laboratory and out to the field, into the worlds of scientists and beekeepers, and to meetings where the research community intersects with government policy and business. The result is an insiders’ view of the way research is conducted—its brilliant potential and its flaws—along with the personal insights and remarkable personalities experienced over a forty-year career that parallels the rise of industrial agriculture.
