~ The log beehive, ‘mzinga’, shown in these images was bound to a tree limb by wire. The tree grew just outside of the perimeter fence, thus wasn't in the park, although the resident bees were unfettered by notions of borders. Whenever I travel through north central Kenya I'm conscious of such beehives, which are sometimes 2 or 3 to a tree. When I first saw one, I was shy to ask Anthony about it, concerned that it might be a sky casket!
