A sweet treasure and a delectable treat........fresh honey fresh from a wild hive.....found while re-roofing my friends turn of the century adobe house.....I relocated the bees and recovered over 60 pounds of honey and wax combs. They covered a 6'x8' section of roof, they had been in there for a while judging by the size of the hive....time to start jarring the stuff......mmmmm mmmm good.....

excellent, most people would kill the bees and ruin the honey. I am glad you took the time to think about the bees and save the honey. enjoy, and thanks for sharing.
