After getting a real close look I determined that this was indeed a worker and a mutt Italian.

Iddee- "That's what I call gentle bees. I think she likes you.

    I agree, I love it when they land on me and groom. They especially like me now that I buff my arms with propolis tincture  ;)

Hey Al, I've heard of checking for mites and doing mite counts, but I think you're getting carried away there buddy! :laugh:

All our bees are nice even tempered. If they aren't I sneak out in the night get the queen and feed her to some bats.

Old Billy once told Kare at a bee club meeting he never knowingly killed a queen. Since then  :D I have to sneak out and do the deed.
