i was checking on corn today, taking a few photos. the patch is pollinating and full of bees.
corn does not require a pollinator, however, the bees want the pollen. my neighbor, a knowledgeable fellow, says they will use this to cap the honey.
as i was observing the bees and trying to get a few photos, i thought to myself, i sure am glad this is not a gmo corn meant to kill insects because if it was, it sure wouldnt be great to have all that pollen hauled back to the hive. and i cant help but wonder, with all the bt/gmo corn grown across the country, couldnt that be a contributing factor to colony collapse?
