| We have a bee keeper in the family. Michael has taken up bee keeping. He ordered his bee hive box kit, built and painted it. Some dear friends of ours help Michael extract bees from Alex's pool table (bees had taken up residence there) that was stored under our barn. |
 |
| This is the pool table with the top pulled off. You can see about 6 - 8 honey combs.. |
 |
| They gently vacuumed the bees into a 5 gallon bucket and cut the honey comb out. |
 |
| After they removed the honeycomb they placed each honeycomb in Michael's frames with a rubber band and they went into his bee hive box. Interestingly, once the bees have the honeycomb secured in each frame, they remove the rubber bands and carry them out of the hive. |
 |
| Lots of helpers |
