Down To [the good] Earth

[suckonsimon]

I'm passionate about ... organic fruit and veg growing. Out there in sunshine or hail, close to the earth, I witness close-up the massive energy and infinite variety of ... reproduction. So. how about joining me in getting into nature and its funky shows of sexual endeavour ...

First off, the honey bee [Yeah, we're thinking of a hive come the autumn]. I'm reading that the queen on her maiden flight will take on perhaps 15, 20 drones who in turn will impregnate her with all they've got. And that will be enough for her to fertilize her eggs for four, five years, laying at peak 2,000 per day. Some impregnation eh! I'm saying, "all they've got": each drone will not only die but fall to bits as it plummets to earth having had his moments of glory. Any guys know that feeling?
