One of my many hobbies away from the office is beekeeping.  Don’t worry, I’m not going to be offering apitherapy in the therapy room.  It might be a trifle counterproductive for most folks.  :)
Take a look at some of the photos we have of the most recent hive inspection.  A friend who is a bee professional was gracious enough to come over and help with the first official inspection!
