My fascinating bee's. It's been a nice day and they have not stopped collecting all day.

I could sit and watch them all day long. When they leave the Hives I try and guess which way they will head off. They seem to circle once and then go off in the selected direction. I would love to know where, but guess that a bee-cam might be slightly too heavy for them.
