News - Honeybees: 3D images reveal life inside a live hive
Safari Maiden Mon May 17, 2010 9:37 am
"Scientists have devised a new way to peer into the inner workings of a live honeybee colony, without disturbing the insects inside.
The technique, known as Diagnostic Radioentomology (DR), scans a beehive, taking a series of 3D images.
This reveals in real-time how many bees are inside, where they are, and gives clues as to what they are doing.
Such information could help scientists understand what is causing bee numbers around the world to decline steeply."

The graphics give an interesting insight. I know I can sometimes take things for granted and dont like bees, wasps etc, but everything has its place!

I confess wasps don't appeal, but as you say everything has it's place.
