# Charles Butler

> Charles Butler, sometimes called the Father of English Beekeeping, was a logician, grammarian, author, priest, and an influential beekeeper. He was also an early proponent of English spelling reform. He observed that bees produce wax combs from scales of wax produced in their own bodies; and he was among the first to assert that drones are male and the queen female, though he believed worker bees lay eggs.

*British logician, grammarist, author, minister, beekeeper*
