Beekeeping: West Linton and District Beekeepers Association

Learning all about bees: on a driech day in Edinburgh I went to visit the West Linton & District Beekeepers group in an equally driech Carlops, in the Pentland Hills.  There weren't many bees buzzing around on the day I dropped by to the apiary as it was a bit cold, but I still spent a brilliant hour with a great group of enthusiasts.

We talked all things bees, cold summers, swarms and the benefits of an absorbing hobby in the outdoors.  They were a fascinating group of bee experts and enterprising member, Jane, managed to get my microphone right inside a hive to hear what it sounds like inside! 

You can find out more about the group online:https://westlintonbka.wixsite.com/website - and on Instagram.
