Not the bee's knees

You may have seen the wildlife documentary "My Garden of a Thousand Bees", wildlife cameraman Martin Dohrn's 2020 Covid lockdown project.  If you haven't seen it, Google it and try and track it down - it's the best wildlife documentary I've seen for years, certainly since before the BBC gave up on anything that is not characteristic megafauna. And if that doesn't give you enough food for thought, read this:
