Honey and pollen flora of South-Eastern Australia

This PDF book is best viewed on a desktop or tablet, not a phone (due to the size of the pages). The quality of the book is best in the Play Books app, not through the Google Play web store and library. However please understand that the pages will be around 50% of the size of the hardcover print edition and may be easier to read when when zoomed in. The PDF can be saved offline, but can't be saved to your computer and opened in Adobe Acrobat, copied and shared, or printed in full. It will remain in the Google app or library. Understanding the biology of flora and its value to honey bees is the core foundation for successful beekeeping. Bees feed on nectar and pollen. No food equals no bees!...

A dark, delicious standalone, from award-winning Peter Lovesey. Otis Joy is a very good vicar - he attracts record-breaking congregations, is admired and respected by all, and the village of Foxford is delighted to have him. What the citizens of Foxford don't realise, though, is that their beloved parish priest is a murderer. When the bishop gets suspicious of Joy's channelling of church funds into his own bank account, Joy kills him - after all, such a trifling misdemeanour should not prevent him from carrying out his duties. However, this isn't the first time he's despatched 'busy-bodies' and rumours are beginning to circulate. So when the husband of his new treasurer is found dead, perhaps he's taken one life too many . . . Peter Lovesey amply demonstrates that he is the acknowledged master of the whodunnit in this deliciously complicated and satisfying mystery.

Now revised and updated with new resources and including full-color photos throughout, Natural Beekeeping offers all the latest information in a book that has already proven invaluable for organic beekeepers. The new edition offers the same holisti...

Fair in Love

Travis McAllan is one of America's top country music stars -- loved by fans, he lives the dreamed-of life of a country boy who has made it. The lifestyle of a star, however, comes at a cost, and Travis keeps his sexuality a secret until he meets Geoff Randsell. The attraction is immediate and jolts Travis from his life of pretense. Geoff has a secret of his own -- he’s in a rocky relationship, and he isn't impressed by Hollywood glitz. When he falls for Travis, Geoff is swept off his feet, both dazzled by and apprehensive about the celebrity lifestyle of private planes, mansions, and travel. When a photographer sells a picture of Travis and Geoff to the tabloids, their courtship and private world come under fire. Travis must risk his music career to be with the man he loves, and Geoff has to make the difficult choice to accept a life in the public eye. In the face of increasing pressure, can Travis and Geoff stay true to themselves to get to the altar and say, “I do?”
