D.C. agencies work together to create a splash park for bees ECO9

Thursday, August 1, 2024

During the dog days of summer, a colony of honeybees were desperate for water. 

The sweltering summer heat forced the bees to drink from the closest water source they could find. Which just so happened to be the Edgewood Splash pad in Northeast, D.C. Residents noticed the bees swarming the water feature and were worried about kids getting stung. So, three D.C. agencies worked together to come up with a solution.
