Mohan Sookdeo has been an active and enthusiastic member of the bee committee since we first started our work in 2009. A couple of weeks ago, he got his first opportunity to don one of the white suits and come out to the hives to help Nigama. I asked him to write a few words about his impressions and he kindly agreed.
My First Time with the Bees
We approached the bees very carefully and not with a lot sound. When we got closer, I could hear them buzzing. As I was standing there, many of them came by my face net and were bouncing at me. Maybe to ask me what I was doing there. I knew I had to stay calm otherwise they would have gotten more mad at me. Anyway, they saw that I was not doing anything to harm them and they left me alone.
It is very interesting to look at the bees and learn from them.
Hey Rajeswari, when do I get a chance to check out the hive?
ReplyDeleteAny time you like Keval! Just come to Nigama or myself and we'll pick a Saturday to get you suited up :) So happy you are interested. Are you thinking about coming to our Bee Workshop? http://amritabees.blogspot.com/p/bee-workshop-coming-up.html
