Abstract
MY children noticed with much interest, last autumn, the curious manner that the bees attacked the flowers of the Antirrhinum majus, making a hole at the bottom of the corolla of the flower near the stalk, and so getting at the honey from the outside. It was too late in the season to be able to observe it much, or often, but we are pleased to find others have seen it too.
