Kellie Lenamond is 16. She’s from the United States. She has many hobbies. She likes playing volleyball. She also likes playing the violin, and she loves singing. But Kellie has an unusual hobby: beekeeping (养蜂).
Kellie doesn’t work with her bees every day. She looks after her hives (蜂房) about twice a month in the spring, summer and autumn. She spends more time with her bees in winter. There aren’t many flowers for the bees to get food from at this time of year. So Kellie feeds the bees sugar water in winter.
This is a usual day for Kellie when she works with her bees:
8:00 She gets up and eats breakfast.
9:00 She makes sugar water for the bees.
10: 00 She does her homework.
11:00 She practices the violin.
12:00 She makes lunch for her brothers and sisters. Then they eat lunch together.
3:00 She goes to volleyball practice.
5:00 She and her mom make dinner.
7:00 After dinner, Kellie dresses herself in special clothes. She feeds the bees sugar water.
Every summer, Kellie takes honey from the hives. Her bees can make a lot of honey in a year. Kellie and her family sell some of the honey, cook with some of the honey and give friends honey, too.
Kellie’s friends don’t go near the hives. They are afraid. They don’t want the bees to sting (蜇) them. Kellie says they don’t understand that bees are safe. “I like standing safely in the middle of the bees. No one else is brave enough!” she says.
