Beekeeping

I decided to give the Hualango honey harvest a post of its own - the whole thing was so cool so I took lots of pictures :)

Javi back from the hives with three shelves of honey

Can't get any fresher than that!

Javi and Edgar cutting the wax/honey off the shelves

With each piece you squeeze the honey out, then discard the wax. The honey filters into the bucket through mesh to further separate the wax.

Almost done

The final result: about six kilos of delicious honey from only three shelves (each hive has ten shelves)
