EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo from the 1940s, a swarm of bees has unexpectedly settled at the foot of a pole on a bomb site in Victoria Street. The sight caused quite a stir, attracting a large crowd that gathered around in curiosity and concern. Amidst the buzzing chaos, PC Marshall, an officer from Scotland Yard, stepped forward to restore order. With remarkable composure and bravery, PC Marshall skillfully scooped up the entire swarm into an unlikely vessel - a humble biscuit tin. As he expertly handled the delicate situation, he ensured both public safety and the preservation of these precious creatures. The image captures not only the extraordinary moment but also serves as a testament to human ingenuity and compassion towards nature's wonders. It is reminiscent of an era when people were more connected with their surroundings and willing to go above and beyond to protect even the smallest members of our ecosystem.
