Audio Log: Bumblehum

This recording is from late spring 08' at Antioch University New England. I happened to notice a large number of bees (dare I say a swarm) gathering pollen from an ornamental shrub in the main quad after a morning class. It sounded so lovely that I biked home to grab my recording equipment and was back to record within fifteen minutes. There are quite a few genera of bees represented in this recording, but most of the buzzing is from species belonging to the Bombus genus, more commonly known as bumblebees.
