One of the more frequent and popular geysers in Yellowstone's Upper Geyser Basin. Beehive has predictable eruptions every 11 to 14 hrs, which last for ~ 5 minutes and can be heard a quarter mile away. Beehive is one of the tallest geysers in Yellowstone. Its fine, veil-like plume has been measured to 218 feet. Beehive is within view of iconic Old Faithful geyser.
Another perspective in comments.
If I lived closer to Yellowstone I'd become a geyser groupie trying to see as many as I can. They are amazing.

The city is a fact in nature, like a cave, a run of mackerel or an ant-heap. But it is also a conscious work of art, and it holds within its communal framework many simpler and more personal forms of art. Mind takes form in the city; and in turn, urban forms condition mind.
~ Lewis Mumford
Beehive erupts from a 4 foot tall, smooth sided cone that reminded the early Washburn Expedition of 1870 of an old fashioned straw beehive, hence the name.
"Beehive Geyser is taller than Old Faithful and eruptions last about a minute longer than Old Faithful. While Old Faithful is beautiful, Beehive Geyser is arguably one of the prettiest geysers with its graceful, tall slender jet of water that reaches up to 200 feet (60 meters) if the wind is calmer. Top measurement was at 218 ft.
Since the boardwalk is close, there’s it the potential of getting drenched to the skin in the spray. While the water that erupts from the cone is hot, the spray quickly cools to quite a cold shower which is not a bad thing on a hot summer’s day. Noticing the wind direction is a good thing to do when watching an eruption from the boardwalk. There are geyser gazers (geyser enthusiasts) who bring ponchos and umbrellas just to stand in this different type of “holy water.” Also, know that the water has silica in it, and if allowed to dry on surfaces (camera lenses, glasses, etc.) it can leave a mineral deposit that’s difficult to clean off. Wipe them off quickly or keep them stowed away." yellowstonenaturalist.com
I found that out the hard way, with the mist ruining a new polarizer. Lesson learned.
Have a fabulous week!
The Big Beehive - that's the name of this massive rock - from another point of view, further up the Lake Agnes Trail. You can see the many layers of the rock quite well here.
Portable "beehives" are rather common in Bavaria. This one is located near the villae of Weltenburg at the Danube. The picture was taken in the afternoon.

Not for burning Beehives, but for burning sawdust and scrap-wood. Also know as a Wigwam Burner or TeePee Burner in the US.

(Zinginber spectabile)
Member of the ginger family. Native to Southeast Asia, it's mainly grown as and ornamental plant, but also used as a medicinal herb. Research shows that the plant has antimicrobial properties and a high concentration of enzymes that can prevent colon cancer.
It started to snow yesterday afternoon. This is a beehive from Bee Urban. It can be found in the park in Tungelsta.
Today we arrive to the Landze church which is located in rural country side on the bank of river Venta. It's open several times a year and Christmas is one of them
The more than 300-year-old Landze Lutheran Church is located near Piltene, in a very picturesque place on the banks of the Venta. The landscape around the church is complemented by a grove of old lindens (there are 7 large lindens here, the circumference of the thickest tree is 6.4 m - it was a beehive tree, the trunk has large knots). An alley leads to the Landze church from the rectory (former boarding house building), where a pear tree with a circumference of 2 m also grows.
The Baltic German poet and translator Kārlis Hugenberger (1784 – 1860) spent his childhood in the Landze rectory. There are ancient burials near the church. Former parish priest of Landze, theologian and historian Teodors Kallmejers (1809 – 1859) is buried here. To the southeast of the church is an ancient cemetery.
Landze is believed to be one of two churches that were built as part of a treaty concluded in 1252 between the Bishopric of Courland and the Livonian Order on its Vinda (Ventava) lands. It existed already in Catholic times, since Jakob Polen founded a vicaria in it in 1518 in honor of the Virgin Mary. The gift was approved by the Master of the Order Walter von Plettenberg. But by the time Gotthard Kettler came to power, it had already collapsed, because by order of February 28, 1567, he ordered the construction of a church in Landze as well.
Probably built a wooden church in 1609 it was still in relatively good condition, only, presumably, initially it was without a tower, since in 1678 the bells hung, as is understood from the descriptions, in a separately standing tower.
In 1700, a tower was built and in 1703 the bells found their place in the tower that stood in the churchyard. The documents of 1712 say that the church is quite new, she has a tiled roof, a red-painted tower strewn with tin, holding two metal bells. The church has new benches, an altar and a chair. This tower threatens to invade as early as 1737. In 1744, by order of the duke, a significant redevelopment is carried out. The tower is demolished and built from the very foundation. It was originally made of wood, in 1776 Christopher Dittrich, Georg von Medem, the renter of the Zūras, orders the construction of a new one from stones. The final restoration work was carried out by Gustav von Lambsdorf, Count of Zūras, in 1847–1848 and finally in 1878 and 1909.
The pastoral lodge is believed to have been founded by Duke Gotthard and suffered greatly from the leaching of the Venta coast. The pastorate's lands were declining until finally 19.gs. in the first half, Count von Lambsdorf, the owner of the Zurs, allocates significant areas of land and restored the pastoral mansion to its former extent. Venta leachates in the 18th century. The pastorate, who was then south of the church, was also threatened, as in 1788 the pastorate had to be relocated and installed north of the church.

The western honey bee (Apis mellifera) was one of the first domesticated insects. It is still the primary species maintained by beekeepers for its honey production and pollination activities. With human assistance, the western honey bee now occupies every continent except Antarctica.
The Beehive has been a pub and various restaurants and is yet again waiting new management in the village of Thorner, West Yorkshire
Thorner (LS14) is 8 miles southwest of Wetherby and has no street lighting
The village appears in the 1086 Domesday Book as "Torneure" (also "Tornoure") means "thorn bank". The ancient parish of Thorner covered 4400 acres in the wapentake of Skyrack in the West Riding of Yorkshire
