Everyone who gets acquainted with bees for the first time finds themselves in an amazingly interesting, outlandish, one might say, fantastic world, superbly organized and infinitely flexible, simple in its natural perfection and at the same time infinitely complex. The reader will look into their hive on a December day, when winter turns to frost, and the sun turns to summer, and the life of a bee family awakens in a sleepy club. He will see them on a spring afternoon, when the gardens are covered with white foam and permeated with the hum of pickers pollinating flowers, and in late autumn, when the fields have long been harvested and the bees' nests have been removed.
