Jacob the beekeeper

While we were in Bielefeld, jacob was able to assist Peter in tending to his bee hives. This is a hobby that he began after he retired a few years ago. The first thing to do was to put on the gear.










Next, making the smoke so the bees will relax and not sting you while you are changing the cones. At one point Peter "Accidentally" dropped one and the bees started buzzing. But Jacob stood still and kept pumping the smoke out.









Another shot of the bee meister Jacob. Keeping those bees at bay.

Hooray, Jaocb survived and didn't get stung once!
