why write a book about bees? my interest in these dates back to my time in graduate school where i was studying the pollen dispersal and genetics of these large rain forest trees in central america. i had gone out and genetically fingerprinted all of the adult trees of a particular species in this landscape so that i could see how the genes were moving around amongst them, and i knew that something up there, out of sight, in the rain forest canopy was moving pollen around, not just between neighboring trees but among individuals of a mile and a half apart. because that tree was a member of the family and have this big purple p flowers just like the sweet peas or garden keys in your yard, i knew that was something so i coerced a friend of mine into joining me for a couple weeks and we hired a local businessman who was handy with a crossbow and we spent two weeks firing lines up into the rain forest canopy and hauling up all manner of insect traps and catching a grand total of zero bees. the only time we saw b was
