Honeybees are barging aside wild pollinators in hunt for pollen and nectar, study finds https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2026/oct/17/honeybees-are-barging-aside-wild-pollinators-in-hunt-for-pollen-and-nectar-study-finds #nature #environment #insects #bees #pollinators #honey #AnimalRights

“Because honeybees aren’t native, they disproportionately love non-native plants … and that includes lots of invasive plant species,” MacIvor says. “One of the biggest visitors to a lot of these non-native and invasive plants are honeybees, [and they] then set seeds and spread.” #rewilding #bees #pollinators #gardening #honey #landscaping

We extracted our last frames and got several more quarts of honey. Check out the contrast in color depth. The late spring/early summer honey on the left is light and a mix of wildflowers, clover and blooming trees. The jar on the right is late summer honey. It's dark with a mineral rich taste of sunflowers, sumac, buckwheat and blackberry/elderberry juice. Very complex but both are delicious, just different ends of the seasons. #beekeeping #HarpHives #honey
