It's about 40 since I ran beekeeping @Barski
My grandfather had bees, and I took care of them since I was 15-16 years old. He had about 20 hives.
A couple of years later my dad started with bees, and I helped with these cubes.
For the most part, I was responsible for between 20-30 hives.
I looked after bees for 20 years, but since 1985 I have not been running hives. Still, I am always interested in bees and beekeeping.
That's why I've posted both pictures and some text about bees on my blog.
In a previous blog, I wrote about bees in Norway.
The most common species is called the brown bee in Norwegian.
