Bill Hewlett famously said, "You cannot manage what you cannot measure."  In our efforts to understand and manage our environment, one thing we lack are "baseline stations" -- places where the environment is essentially unmodified. 

Here in Dallas, I'm fortunate to have access to the Trinity River Audubon Center; a brownfield remediation site where the Texas Honeybee Guild keeps a set of five beehives.  With their kind permission, I am beginning a project to monitor them and their health and the health of their environment.
