Milo, my oldest wee grandson, is interested in bees, all on his own, and I got this picture today and smiled.
No planning, and it comes together.
You see, I have a small 5-frame Nuclear Hive (nuc) kit he can easily assemble with just a little help, and then paint as he sees fit, when he visits. I will then populate it with bees and send pictures to him telling him about his hive, his Queen, his workers, the type of trees and flowers, the bee predators, the bee diseases, and old Mamma Owl that nests in a box 30 feet away and 23 feet up an oak tree.
I can almost certainly write him a children’s book about nature, with him at the center, that might outlive us both.
Below, is what two 5-frame Nuc Hives looks like, painted up bright.
