This was my roommate during API taking an afternoon snooze. One of the most chill and funny guys I know.
Little Api. This was on a hike up to Peak 1 to take some photos. Api came with - bare feet and all. This photo so captures Api's curiousness and excitability. I really miss not being able to spend time with him - but he left the island the day after I did to stay with relatives near the Mali school anyway.
This photo was taken during a trip to Vorovoro Island in the north of Fiji with TribeWanted (www.tribewanted.com). TribeWanted is the group featured in the new BBC2 documentary, Paradise or Bust
This is an Apis mellifera ligustica ecotype Valtellina, stell the breed my grandfather used to raise.

Honey Bee. (Apis mellifera).-collecting its daily harvest.
Honey bees (or honeybees) are a subset of bees, primarily distinguished by the production and storage of honey and the construction of perennial, colonial nests out of wax. Species of Apis are generalist floral visitors, and will pollinate a large variety of plants, but by no means all plants. Of all the honey bee species, only Apis mellifera has been used extensively for commercial pollination of crops and other plants.
All honey bees live in colonies where the worker bees will sting intruders as a form of defense, and alarmed bees will release a pheromone that stimulates the attack response in other bees.-so beware!
