12.01.2022 Do bees rest at all ? Yes, they sleep 5 - 6 hours in 24 hours period and many bees hold each other's legs as they sleep. Some native bees sleep in the flowers.... #beesleep #nativebees #rest photographer Joe Neely (You can found the original of this photo and many more amazing photos of nature and animals on www.jmneelyphotography.com See more
12.01.2022 Australian Beekeepers are furious with the conduct of Woolworths and have suggested a national wide #boycott of the supermarket chain. Woolworths have announced... they will continued to sell Chinese honey concoctions without displaying the honey is from China. Woolworths and ACO are teaming up to mislead consumers under their macro label. This Australian Certified Organic honey is not Australian and has not been tested using the NMR testing regime that has already revealed 60 percent of supermarket honey is fake. Australian certified organic does not test the imported honey. We are not told where this honey comes from. 160000 people have signed the change.org petition calling for Woolworths to stop selling Imported honey or in the least label is with country of origin. Yet the Government refuses to act. http://change.org/honeylabelling After Coles and ALDI Australia announced it would no longer sell Imported honey Beekeepers around Australia rejoiced thinking Woolworths would follow. At the Australian national beekeeping Congress, Norberto Garcia scientist and star of the Netflix series Rotten used statistics to eloquently prove that there has been an elaborate scam perpetuated by China to dominate the worlds honey market, through fake honey. Norberto communicated several scams being used by China such as blending rice syrup to honey and harvesting unrippened honey. He made it clear that there is no doubt Australia has fallen victim to fake Chinese honey. Australia has lost at least 15 percent of commercial beekeepers over the last two decades and will lose more if the price of honey continued to drop because of Chinese imports. This in turn risks Australias food security that is reliant of honeybees for pollination. Low prices for Australian farmers can lead to depression and suicide. http://www.abc.net.au//suicide-still-a-bigger-prob/8996568 Much of this fake honey arrives in Australia for $2kg then they blend it with a small amount of Australian honey and sell it in under subsidiary brands like Woolworths homebrand and Macro honey. Imported honey can carry different strains of diseases that can effect not only Australian honeybees but over 1500 indigenous bee species. One disease American Foul Brood is presently decimating bee colonies. AFB disease can be spread easily by animal lovers feeding birds and possums honey outdoors. Often people use cheap imported honey to feed animals and birds. We can learn from the prawn industry. Innocently people used imported prawns for bait which decimated the local prawn industry. The same thing is happening to our bees due to imported honey. http://www.abc.net.au//systematic-failure-of-biose/9246796 If the government is too corrupt to act, we will invoke change by boycotting greedy corporations. If you want to support Australian beekeepers #boycott Woolworths. Sharing this post will save the bees. You can find local honey on the honeymap. https://www.beethecure.com.au/honey-map/ Download the Bee the cure App Petition http://change.org/honeylabelling Please Share
