Hard to fathom that the linchpin that holds all of life together on this planet rests on the fervent and relentless activity of this little fellow shown above, sucking nectar out of the style of a flower. As he gathers the nectar, going flower to flower, he spreads the pollen stuck to his body securing the pollination and ensuring the continuation of all plant life, and thus the vast animal food chain that relies on it. If we were to properly value this pollination effort, we would do everything in our power, and base every decision on the health and wellbeing of the bees. Instead of applying our cunning for war and conquering and mayhem, we would help our little friends who labor on our behalf. Then we would truly live in a world abundant with milk and honey.
