Her Highness, The Carniolan Queen
🐝 About Me
Greetings, dear humans. I am the Queen of the Carniolan hive — a refined lineage from the majestic lands of Slovenia. We’re known as the gentle souls of the beekeeping world, and I run a tight but calm court. My daughters are cool-headed, clever foragers who work in harmony with the seasons. We’re not ones for fuss or fanfare — just quietly making magic in the wildflowers.
Our sleek grey-and-black stripes may look modest, but don’t let that fool you — we’re pure class.
✨ What Makes Us Buzz
Mild-mannered: Perfect around people (especially small humans like James and Max).
Adaptive foragers: We don’t need a sunny day to get the job done.
Seasonal smarts: We grow our numbers only when needed, conserving energy and honey.
Communication queens: Our girls get it done without drama or diva dances.
In short: we’re efficient, elegant, and excellent producers of light, floral honey that whispers of spring hedgerows and meadows.
