New enough (created on 21 September actually, not 20), long enough and within policy. There are a few places where you may want to consider a slight change of wording (in the lead, "human beings, who have developed a specialized form of agriculture to make supplies of honey" – wouldn't "apiculture" or simply "beekeeping" be more to the point than "a specialized form of agriculture"?) but nothing that will keep it from being accepted. In fact, it is an interesting and charming read. The hook is great, supported by inline citation and short enough. There is no image. QPQ is not done – is this perhaps one of your first nominations? Other than the missing QPQ, this article should be good to go.

Yakikaki: Yes, this is my first nomination. I believe that if I have fewer than 5 nominations, I am exempt from QPQs, is that true?
