@@aquaangelina7270what a load of rubbish. Metal spoons almost certainly don’t make honey bad. I mean, a fraction of the honey actually touches the spoon, what are we thinking, that suddenly the metal spoon shoots daggers through the honey to kill it, my sincere advice to anyone that reads this comment is that the internet is filled with total nonsense and that we should be very careful what we believe. Thanks.

When I was at university (I was 52 years old) a friend told me she wanted every bee dead. I was shocked and told her we would all starve to death? She said we could fertilize the plants ourselves. I had a great laugh! Asked her how many trees she could do in a day with a Q-tip. We are so reliant on bees. I have been stung twice by bees in my life. I am now 76. Let the bees be!

Amazing show! My friend was a beekeeper and he was transporting about 3,000 bees in a bucket with a net on top, he said smell it, so I bent my head down with the incredible buzz and took a deep breath in to the wonderful smell of orange blossoms. Thus orange blossom honey.❤️👏🌵

A great find of a friend (Dieago) patient, knowledgeable and genuinely likable man.
That “parade of the bees” was wonderful! Scenes like that are one of the rewards of beekeeping. Tara I’m sooo glad you’ve decided to take a course and learn more. I think you will enjoy it thoroughly and replace your fears with a love and respect for what they do, how they do it and the “miracle” that they are. Hours of entertainment and amazement! I’m as excited for you both and before you know it, your boys will be wearing their own beek suits. In the world of bees, beekeepers are sometimes called Beeks. You may have to add a moniker of The Newbeeks….😉❤️🐝🐝🐝
This episode was really amazing!!!! Thank you so much for sharing!!!!

Fantastic slow motion images of the bees. Truly amazing to see. Loved this episode.
Bless the bees, the trees and the Children three! A girl is coming...
What a beautiful experience. Bees are wonderful and so calming. You might want to set up a bench close by, maybe a bit further away for a start until you get to know and trust your bees and then move the bench closer as you feel more comfortable. I love sitting in front of the bee hives and watching the bees fly in and out. There are so many interesting things to discover and it is very calming. And note to John 😄 your friend didn't believe in strange things like energy - he just knows 😄 we are surrounded by energy, we are energy, everything is energy. Bees (or any animal - Obi for example) can sense your energy. The calmer your energy when you are around your bees, the calmer they are. We all pick up on each others energy. We don't have to touch things, just by being around each other we can sense the energy. Proof would be, go and stand under power-supply lines. Not only can you hear the power running through them but you can also feel it 😉😊 And on another note.... never go check on your bees when you are upset or under time pressure (been there, done that 🤕😄). Bees will know and they appreciate the calm conscious energy. 🐝💕

Diogo is so nice, that was incredible! The slomo of the bees flying around the hive was amazing, their legs are all together when they fly I didnt know that. The time lapse was just fantastic watching them swarm in to the Hiive. I did find the bees flying around pretty scary but so pleased you didnt get stung. Im with you Tara I had to run the 800 metres I hated it, I didnt breathe properly so I always lost my voice after it. I loved sports day at middle school as we had the relay, egg & spoon and the 3 legged race, but then it got serious at senior school x
