Bee keepers everywhere are fascinated by the sources of pollen brought back to the hive. Being able to identify the plants producing this pollen is the key to unlocking information about the forage of the area.

Dr Kirk and his team have painstakingly collected pollen loads from bees from Britain and Germany giving evidence of the natural variation of colour seen at the hive entrance.

The guide contains 500 colours and describes the pollen loads of 268 plant species found in Europe. The text is in French and German as well as English because of the wide demand for this kind of information throughout Europe.

Text in French: "Guide des Couleurs des Pelotes de Pollen des Abeilles Domestiques"

Text in German: "Ein Farbenfuerhrer fur die Pollenhoeschen der Honigbiene"
