Roger,
If you have gone looking for CCD info you'll see what they are talking about. Simply empty hives, no dead bees to be found. Possible culprits mentioned include new Bt corn and new pesticides and even cell phone towers. In our area we have the towers but mostly not the other two problems, and we seem to have plenty of working honeybees in our area. Seems like maybe what you need is the location of a lot of beehives that have been wiped out, and see if you can tell what's wrong there. I can't tell you the wherabouts of any such hives, but I'll bet some conventional bee discussion groups or some news articles will name some places. Donna
