Blenheim bees – A masterful and measured response
It is a tribute to the project that they have sought to prevent managed beekeeping on and around the estate

Guy Thompson not only delivers a masterful and measured response to some of the unsubstantiated claims in a recent media piece about free-living bee colonies in Oxfordshire, but manages to also paint a clear picture of the conditions which favour or hinder the development of what might be considered a healthy balance between landscape, honeybees and other pollinators - an equilibrium that is clearly undermined by much of prevalent beekeeping practice.
