Such a disappointment
What happens here
Upon arriving at the logging site, the presenter locates his friend Adam, who is wearing a bee suit. They discuss the bees' location, which is deep within the undercarriage of a large green John Deere feller buncher (logging machine). The presenter expresses concern about the heat, noting it's a hot and dry day, and the potential for aggressive bees. He ignites the smoker using a lighter and some poplar tree leaves to create a calming smoke. Adam also puts on a bee jacket and gloves. They note that the bees have made a home deep inside the machine's track system.
Goal: Locate the hive, prepare protective gear, and calm the bees with smoke.
