Beetopia Update

Just a reminder from Modern Friction–We’re playing bees in City Park on Sunday, May 1. Meet at Picnic Shelter 6 (between Club Tico and the playground) at 6pm for this kid-friendly game. We should have a high of 54 and partly cloudy–not exactly beetopia (they love 96 degrees), but close enough for May! Bring some food and we’ll stick around afterwards for a picnic.

More random bee facts to get you in the hive:

In the honeybee world, females do all the work

Worker honeybees live on average for 35-42 days during the summer before literally falling over with exhaustion.

Bees have 5 eyes: two big ones like us, but then three little ones on the top of the head to help them fly straight.

Bees can’t see red.
