Inspired by the visual art of Sarah Hatton, I roved the web looking for great writing about bees. But once I stumbled upon Adam Johnson’s “Nirvana,” I had to expand my focus to include domestic drones as well. (The connection? Hager’s short story “Droning.” Tenuous, maybe, but punny enough.)

Check out the links and what I had to say about the pieces in my latest web rove, “A Flighty Future: Bees and Domestic Drones,” at Flight Patterns, the Flyway blog.
