As part of the Discovering Manchester: Wildlife & Nature exhibition<\/a> in Manchester’s Central Library<\/a>, two of the display cabinets are devoted to the Manchester Bee, and this website. Written by Zamil Rahman and Hannah Donovan, the cabinets are a distillation of the information available on the site, covering such topics as the Coat of Arms<\/a>, Beehive Mill<\/a> and Bee in the City<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”http:\/\/manchesterbe.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Town-Hall-Bees-display-Copy.jpg” alt=”Town Hall Bees display” title_text=”Town Hall Bees display” align=”center” align_tablet=”center” align_phone=”center” align_last_edited=”on|desktop” admin_label=”Image” _builder_version=”4.21.0″ use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid” sticky=”off” always_center_on_mobile=”on” global_colors_info=”{}”] [\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n There’s even a bit of information about me and the website included.
