Will Spring Flowers Bring Back Honey Bees?

The Myth of the Disappearing Honey Bee

Buzzing through the air on a warm spring day, honey bees search out the sweetness of a fresh flower.  They dive into the open flower bud as you would a swimming pool full of bubbles, rolling in the pollen, covering themselves from head to toe.  Then they fly off, carrying with them pollen on their back legs to take to another flower.  What would happen if bees disappeared?  Without bees, many flowers, fruits, and vegetables would not reproduce, would not come back the next year.
