Beekeeping 101

The bees in our backyard...We got two hives. The queen is in there somewhere, can you find her? Hint: I couldn't.
They are not astronauts...they are future beekeepers. This is Chris Mathis. He is a beekeeping ninja who is very passionate about caring for bees and beekeeping them happy. Since 1985, Over half of our bees have disappeared. They leave their homes and no one really knows why. Bees are a priority. What happens when they are not around to pollinate our flowers anymore...So long and thanks for all the food? One of my fellow students is studying a bee frame. Chris is using a smoker to calm the bees before entering the hive.
