10 ways to help save the bees!

Illustrated by Scott Ritchie.

The Kattunayakans (also know as the honey hunters) can tell from the ground whether a hive 60-80 feet up in the air has honey or not and whether it is worth the effort climbing up there. They work in teams – each team has its own range or territory which is respected by all. The group then sets out close to dusk. They harvest the honey only when it is dark – otherwise the bees are much too aggressive. They carry with them nothing more than a knife, a few sacred items for their puja, a tin to lower the honey from the tree and big cans to carry the honey home.

Within My Walls

An odd title, given the political geography of Israel/Palestine, this album projects a vision of multicultural music that seems to have little space for Palestinian musicians.
