Having bees this year has been so rewarding and inspiring. I have 10,000 little friends in my backyard that made this beautiful honeycomb, and they let me take 40 pounds of their honey. (i'm not saying they were happy about it though)

This video shows a bit of me getting the screens from the hive, and then us cutting the caps off and straining the honey through a pantyhose from the spinner. The pantyhose strainer looks like any number of organs. I didn't have a hard time waiting all summer to be able to harvest the honey, I had a hard time waiting for it to finish straining so that I could see it all lined up on my counter in jars.
