Our Great Nans side of the family lived at Wreck Bay. This story was told to me by our youngest uncle who sadly is no longer with us. He proudly told me many stories about our people and culture. When our mob would want honey, one of the lads would put the queen bee in a match box, he’d take the match box 80 yards away, put the open match box under the raised hat of another lad. The bees would swarm all over him ( we had stingless bees). The mob would get enough honey then. Once finished the queen bee would return back to the hive and the bees would follow her back.
