Since it's a #WorldBeeDay2020 today, I want to do a little thread connecting bees, Japan, Slovenia and Europe. The #WorldBeeDay is celebrated on May 20, the day Slovenian beekeeper Anton Janša, the pioneer of beekeeping, was born in 1734. #世界ミツバチの日
So, honey and bees are big in Slovenia, but there was
one particularly famous bee back in the 70s and 80s. People growing up in those remote times surely still remember a famous bee called Maya and the rest of the gang.
Maya the Bee or Die Biene Maja in original was born much earlier as a main character of the book "Die Biene Maja und ihre Abenteuer" by the German writer Waldemar Bonsels, published in 1912.
