Worshippers gather around candles stuck to jars with honey during a religious mass to mark the day of Saint Haralampi, the Orthodox patron saint of beekeepers, in the church of the Presentation of the Blessed Virgin in Blagoevgrad, Bulgaria.

I love the story about the beekeeper who put icons in his bee hives and the bees covered the icons with honeycomb but left the Saint on the icon untouched.

Nice photo.

And I've always liked the photos of the icons covered (mostly) with honeycomb.

I heard that bees who set up shop in Jehovah’s Witness churches ended up suffering from colony collapse.

Yeh, I think I heard about that too when I was listening to the BeeBeeC.

I was listening to an old Sting album at the time.

Not sure. I was listening to Wild Honey Pie from the Beatles.

I never cared much for the tune, "Let it Bee." Too redundant and the chorus repetitions seem to buzz in my ear endlessly. I'd rather hear "Johnny Bee Good."

Unbeelievably bad.

I am going to buzz off before anyone else misbeehaves or should that bee, "misbeehives?"
