HER MAJESTY IN HER MAJESTY

This Queen Bee, pictured strutting her stuff over newly collected nectar (on the 8th May in Horeb, Carmarthenshire,) is now two years old. Pretty isn’t she? You can tell her age by the tiny remnants of coded yellow paint on her thorax (correct placement) and, oops, abdomen (incorrect placement!). Oh well, doesn’t seem to have done her any harm.
