Wear Yellow: Bee-cause
May 10, 2010 by Bill
What’s up with the yellow cap during an interview? I’m wearing it for the same reason the interview subject is wearing a yellow jacket. Bees see yellow as a friendly color. (They don’t like dark colors.) At least that’s what beekeeper John Hartley told me.
We did our interview on shrinking bee populations standing next to active beehives. After numerous bees landing on my head and face John could see me getting nervous. He calmly walked over and put the yellow hat on my head. It worked.
