Helping Hand..

This is my sisters hand. She is a EXCELLENT beekeeper and is helping me learn how to also be a beekeeper with my hive. The more I am around these special insects the more they amaze me! They fly 15 miles per hour. You will not outrun them.ha ha. Another tip I have learned..do not eat a banana when you are going to be around your hive and do not wear axe cologne. They do not like the smell and chances are..you will get stung. It is fascinating to know that bees can remember faces! The Honey Bees are so interesting and so necessary in our world for so many things. The Honey Bees are disappearing and it is a GREAT concern for many beekeepers and scientists around the world.
