The Hive is Alive

The local bees will find it hard to resist taking up residence in this handcrafted and environmentally friendly beehive, and they'll quickly set up shop in its natural nesting tubes. Designed to imitate the natural wood preferred by the Mason Bee (a variety that is non-aggressive and excellent pollinators), this habitat gives the little buzzers a protected place to store their larvae and helps support the endangered bee population. The best part? Sit back and enjoy these humming pollinators as they provide you and your backyard guests with hours of peaceful entertainment for years to come. Handmade by Jo-Anne & Gerald Warren in Canada.

First of all, this gift came very securely packaged! It was in a box packed FULL of bubble wrap and then placed inside another box. I wasn't 100% sure what to expect when my husband opened, but this is a really nice piece that almost feel ceramic. It's actually really beautiful to look at and even more importantly sturdy.

It comes with a really helpful little booklet that talks about the type of bees the home will suit (mason bees if anyone is wondering, which are the friendliest kind). My husband did some additional research and it sounds like you put it out in the early Spring and local bees will be attracted to it's design and build nests that then won't hatch until NEXT spring. It's a patience game, but I also think it will be really exciting.

The only downside to this item - I thought there were be more of a protector plate of some sort that keep the tubes in. We have LOTS of squirrels and birds in our neighborhood, and apparently these types of bees are like candy to birds and I'm sure our more than curious squirrels would be capable of pulling out all the nesting tubes. We plan on remedying this by hopefully hanging it in a place the squirrel can't reach, and putting a little chicken wire around the front to keep the birds out.

Long story short, my bee fascinated husband LOVE this and it's a great unique gift.

                              THIS PRESENT IS DOPE - AND BY DOPE I MEAN AWESOME! I always try to find my parents gifts that won't clutter up their home and are easy to enjoy. THIS BLEW THEM AWAY (our guests were buzzing over its beautiful construction). When we opened it I was absolutely blown away by its quality in construction a little smaller than I imagined but I didn't look at the measurements online before buying it. Even if no bees move into it on the farm, something will, and that's fine. My mama will watch it all the same. As an Audubon Society employee I recommended this to all my coworkers for their nature-loving families, and recommend it to all who read this review!

                              But don't turn it upside down or all the small tubes inside of it will fall out!
