Hitokotonushi Shrine in Ibaraki Hosts Summertime Honey Bee Oasis
Hitokotonushi Shrine is located roughly a 45 min drive from central Tokyo and is easily accessible by car. You can also visit their website for details.
In the height of summer, when temperatures are soaring, safe access to
drinking water becomes critical for all animals. And that includes
even bees! At the ancient Hitokotonushi Shrine in Japan’s Ibaraki
prefecture, which was founded in the year 809, a particular breed of
care and kindness is paid to the local bees.
During the summer months, Hitokotonushi Shrine
has a tradition of transforming a section of their water basins,
intended for human visitors, and dedicating them to our pollinating
friends.
Bees don’t only drink the water but they also use it to regulate the
temperature of the hive, feed their young, as well as dilute stored
honey. And bees can sometimes drown when searching for water so the
shrines has spent a good deal of time and consideration on the design of
their bee oasis, which includes moss and several other had surfaces to
climb on.

I see a sad, worried face -it's ME! The words going up from the head are the terrifying thoughts which frighten ME ..... Jacki, your collage is so brilliant again!
I had some very happy hours with family. It's wonderful to be together at least for a short time and I'm really grateful for that.
Wishing you a fine Sunday, Jacki.
Thank you, Elenor! Thank you for your kind words about the collage, your feedbacks helps fuel me for th enext. I am so glad that you had a wonderful time celebrating your son and family. Have a great week ahead.
I was so focused on the negative space that it took me quite awhile to see the face. Well done, Jacki! :-)
