That is a fascinating video Chip!  A well known photographer who now keeps honey bees, gave a TED talk and used that footage to show bee development and varroa activity within the cell.  Click here (https://www.ted.com/talks/anand_varma_a_thrilling_look_at_the_first_21_days_of_a_bee_s_life?language=en) to watch Anand Varma's six minute talk.  It touches on the development of VSH bees.   :)

Very nice Lee.  Thanks for passing that along.  The plight of bees has certainly opened the eyes of many folks who previously had no clue about their importance.

People who can think and talk like Varma will persuade people about  protecting bees too.  It may spill over into the pesticide hysteria though, hope not.  :)
