According to the Houston Chronicle, scientists are excited about bees making a comeback...We can attest to that, as we witnessed our second recent bee colony passing through the Brookwood grounds. Here, the bees collected on an electrical box in a formation known as "bearding." (Thanks to Brookwood Teacher
Hunter Hamilton for that term, as he showed me the latest bee colony moving through!)
Our maintenance team roped off the area to keep citizens, staff or
guests from getting too close to these travelers.
