Shhh... Nodar asks us to be quiet... The constant buzzing in his farm is slightly louder than normally. 'It's a beeswarm', he says. He calls his mother and they indeed find a beeswarm high up in a tree. Sanata puts on her bee-gear and takes a wooden box under her arm. She climbs the tree to fix the box next to the swarm. Now she beats the swarm to agitate the bees. Over time they will naturally go into the box. This process is called: catching a beeswarm. A farmer needs to do this to create new bee-families and ensure the honey for the future.
