Bees are not as industrious as one might think

Dear Bees Buzzing Around the Trash Can By the Bus Stop:

I am glad you have not died of colony collapse or varroa mites, and are still in our gardens, pollinating our flowers - though as to that, I think it might be somewhat more helpful if you went and found some flowers, rather than jonesing after dried cola syrup. I am firmly of the opinion that if I sit here quietly and do not panic and flail or try to swat you, you will hold up your end of the bargain by not stinging me.
