The Bee Keeper's Son
"Patience" is the key word here as a beekeeper father instructs his sometimes over zealous, 5 yr old son a delicate art bee hive tending. It is imperative to remain quiet, using measured movement around his easily excitable, honey-making charges. Apiculture or bee keeping has been around for 9000 years, as it began in North Africa, but maintaining a healthy, honey producing set of hives requires great skill and, most of all, art of patience.
