Subject: Bee size

Dee:

Have a question for you.
I was in a bee yard looking at the 4.9 cell bees on that frame when a light came on.

With smaller bees - are the wings smaller, also???

The answer of course is, YES (he he)

The way the African Honey Bee is determined is by measuring the wings, No?

With smaller bees and smaller wings the European bee maybe be measured and determined to be the AHB.
What do you think?

Regards,
Lee
