Bees, bees, bees







We gave Sky a hive of bees with all the accessories for his birthday in March. They seem happy. Our practical experience with beekeeping is minimal, but we've been reading a lot and so far, so good. I'm absolutely amazed at how docile our little friends are. They tolerate quite a bit of examining with no foul temper. It's mesmerizing to watch them venture out of the hive to an unknown nectar source and return- thighs heavy with pollen.
