Bees at the hydro station in Aral Tobe

26.07.2014

In Aral Tobe Ayan, Viktor and me search the hydro station to get data for Niels about water flows in the delta. As we find the hydro station, the owners show us around on their property. We are invited to admire their bees and learn everything about the water flow in the river next door.
