Honeybees are wonderful pollinators.  In their efforts to make honey, bees have a complicated co-existence and communication system that is not obvious to the common observer.  They have defined roles throughout their lives all for the benefit of the colony.  Learn all about honeybees from Master Gardener and Master Beekeeper Linda Aydlett with this audio series.  It consists of relatively short (5-7 minute) segments from the podcast, Nature Calls: Conversations from the Hudson Valley.
