    Without having them in front of me I'd start with Mark Winston's Honeybee Biology, and dip into Seeley's Honeybee Democracy for clarification of key points. Ribbands and Butler are dated in other areas but their observational work was diligent and is still pertinent and would help flesh out the topic.

    The Buzz about bees by Tautz is also useful. There wasn't a big question on swarming in November so there might well be come march.

    Envelope waiting for me this morning. 3 down, 4 to go

    Not a high a mark as I'd perhaps hoped, but I'll take a pass

    phew. No need for a re-sit on module 6 for me. Next up - queen rearing/module 7.
