Zusammenfassung:	Aspects of the present disclosure are directed to bearings, their manufacture and implementation. As may be implemented in accordance with one or more embodiments, an apparatus includes a bearing cage with a plurality of ball pockets at respective locations along a length of the bearing cage. Each ball pocket holds a ball. A plurality of lubricant reservoirs are respectively located between adjacent ones of the ball pockets along the length of the bearing cage. A plurality of lubricant migration channels are recessed in the bearing cage, extend between and connect one of the lubricant reservoirs and one of the ball pockets, and flow lubricant between the one of the lubricant reservoirs and the one of the ball pockets.
