The Traveling Beekeeper
February Cover Picture Honey bee foraging on a snowdrop flower (Galanthus nivalis). There are 75 species and varieties of snowdrops and they are all white. The major benefit of planting snowdrops is their early arrival. They can show up weeks before crocuses do, and will often poke through a covering of snow. In the South, snowdrops may even bloom all winter long. (Photo bv Tibor I. Szabo. RR l , Puslinch, Ontario, Canadá NOB 2JQ)"
