Drone pollinators could help relieve overburdened bees
Researchers at Japan’s AIST institute found gel from a previous failed experiment and discovered that it can, with horse-hair covered drones, pollinate flowers.

It’s an interesting concept.

This made me laugh. Uproariously.

Haha, ah I don’t know. As they just come to me like a magnet and ferrous metal.

Nornally we tend to avoid that relationship around here.
Ah, but with me, it’s like a naturally transpiring occurrence.
Why, are you seriously, or mildly amused, by my ongoing attempts, at forum enlightenment.



Like the the Xwing fighter, it’s only fun, while the batteries are full. Ha

Mildly amused

But really entertained

I must say you keep it fun and different

I eat a lot of Honey, so in answer to your question, I need them.


I only wish we grew manuka flowers in Alberta. Haha

Mānuka honey is a monofloral honey produced from the nectar of the mānuka tree. The honey is commonly sold as an alternative medicine. While components in mānuka honey are studied for their potential antibacterial properties in vitro, there is no conclusive evidence of medicinal or dietary value other than as a sweetener.

The word mānuka is from the Māori language in which it represents the bush or tree (Leptospermum scoparium).
