　　In recent years, several urban US airports have converted someof the unused land past their runways to provide habitats for honeybees. Whileairports may seem unlikely locations for beekeeping, many of them, in fact,have the potential to offer ideal conditions for an apiary (a group ofbeehives). The Lambert-St. Louis International Airport, for instance, hosts anapiary on a 400-square-foot area of land just north of one of its runways. Thisarea is rich in Dutch clover, a preferred food source for honeybees. Thehoneybees may thrive there in part because they aren't exposed to theagricultural pesticides suspected of contributing to Colony Collapse Disorder.Though unorthodox, healthy populations of honeybees can be ensured with thehelp of these airport-based honeybee habitats in local regions.
