1. It's fire season and questions are coming up about how bees get along in smokey air. One of our beeks in our circle of bee clubs says that bees hunker down and will eat their stores, and just like winter, parish from starvation even if there are stores in the hive.
2. It is also said that bees will hunker down in their hives and burn up with the fire?
3. Also, on very smokey days, I've seen my bees still come and go. To my knowledge, on very smokey days the bees will not travel out as far to forage, due to not being able to find their way back to their hives?
