Non Paying Tenants

This is an interesting article that was in our Sunday paper. Seems bees are setting up housekeeping in foreclosure homes in the Lee County, Florida area. Mr. B. Keith Councell is a fourth generation beekeeper and a licensed bee remover. He donates all the honey and beeswax from his 300 or so colonies to the St. Nicholas Eastern Orthodox Monastery where he has lived since Hurricane Charley destroyed his trailer in 2004.
