Don't be alarmed! This isn't a hole in your screen through which you can see bees! It's a picture! Your monitor is probably not full of bees.
Mmmm... hives, honey, bees - it's all here! And we'd be nothing without YOU!!! That's right, send in snaps of your bee-box pride-and-joys, and if we publish them - you could win £50!!! Or the special prize of £200 for our special STAR HIVE!!! So record your miss-behivin' on film, and bee in the money!!!!

"This is our pine beehive that my wife made herself!" writes Phil Hartnoll of Chester. "We haven't got any bees yet, but they're next on our bee list!"

Good work, Phil! Here's £50 to go towards your bees.

"We're very proud of our bee home," says Jenny Lampeter of Northumberland. "After we took the photos, we just had to go and eat as much honey as we could!"

Great! Have £50!

A good action shot from Terry and David Scott from Malden. "Here's Terry, getting in there and scraping off the honey," writes David.

Splendid, Terry and David! Here at Reader's Hives, we love to see beekeepers getting stuck in.

"We spent so much money on building our hive, that we couldn't afford a camera," writes Carla Pennington from Exeter. "So I did this pencil drawing instead!"

That's very resourceful, Carla! You've won £50 - maybe you could spend it on a camera!

"Here's my brother Kevin and our dad looking at one of the combs that came out of our hive," writes Gerald Humbucker of Leicester.

Mmm, we can just imagine the sweet, golden honey drip-drip-dripping off of that comb. £50 for your trouble, Gerald!
