Honey harvesting

Smoked Bees are less aggressive and do not attack unless you try to be funny=) Seeing the bees made my hair stand instantaneously..

It was quite difficult for me to spot the queen... it looks similar in size with the red but apparently it is not.. may be parallex error on my side=)

Here's the machine that simon's dad used to harvest the ney.. the 'platlets' are incertained into the machine and spinned manually... The honey flows out of the comb due to centrifugal force.

Waxing process which doesnt hurt!!! haha.. The honey comb are covered with wax when they are full by the bees.. Removal of the wax is necessary to allow the honey to flow out of the comb. Honey is then filtered to remove any traces of wax. The honey taste good! Got a bottle for my green tea!
