Hello Dr. Jamie Ellis! I just graduated from USF with a B.S. in biology and recently became very interested in studying bees. However, I don't have any experience with entomology or beekeeping and field work is tough because I don't do well in the Florida heat. I do have 3 years of lab experience and enjoy being in the lab, so my question is: is it possible to study bees without having to be in the field? I do understand there is probably no way around NEVER going in the field, but just a lesser amount. Also, are there any books you recommend for learning more about bees?
