In this photo taken Sunday, May 5, 2013, bees fly in and out of the hive outside of Quentin Williams home in Snohomish, Wash. Williams, the manager of Beez Neez, has six hives with two breeds of bees. Bee farmers have been worried about colony collapse disorder, a previously rare occurrence in which the worker bees of the colony disappear. A new federal report suggests that a number of issues contribute to the bee colony's decline, including parasites, malnutrition, and pesticide exposure. (AP Photo/The Herald, Nick Adams)AP
