Vanishing Bees - Voice of America

Another view of CCD. I saw my first honeybee here in Ohio this year just two days ago, in a patch of white clover in our yard. This is very unusual. I have noticed a much higher number of bumblebees (which seem to be smaller than the ones I saw as a child, for some reason) and a darker bee about the size of a honeybee, but with no yellow markings, in my garden, pollinating the zucchini.
