I live in the Crimea capital - Simferopol city.
It has been established in 1784 and since then it had a heraldic coat of arms with honeycombs and bees.

Nice, heh? and so Hivish )))

So, honey bees are the symbol of our city.

But in 2018 one city company has gifted to the city and its habitats 20 bronze small honeybee statues. Now, after 3 years there are around 100 honey bee cuties on our street. They are really small - no more than 8 inches tall, but they have a lot of charm and optimism.

Practically everyone can order his own honeybee and install it on his business entrance, on a roof or in a front yard.

They are all different and unique and all of them have their own sense.
Like, this icecream woman in the kids park:
