Fraxinella






























            Meanwhile Apis was traveling toward his hive. His little bee-brain
        was filled with memories of the beautiful rosebush he had just visited.
        He  couldn’t  wait  to  get  back  to  his  hive  and  do  a  clever  dance
        describing  exactly  where  it  was  located,  so  that  the  other  nectar-
        gatherers could find it, too. So absorbed was he in this thought that
        he bumbled right into the side of a tree. Half-stunned by the impact,
        he sputtered and buzzed erratically, then fell unconscious into a large
        clump of plants not on his normal rounds.
