,,,,,,,,~« the honey is a reddish amber, very «~,,,,,,,,
,,,,,,,,,~ viscous (but still pourable). it smells ~,,,,,,,,,
,,,,,,,,,, slightly of eucalyptus, and has a ,,,,,,,,,,

,,,,,~«\*@ the desert of kirugu serves this @*\«~,,,,,
,,,,,,~«\* purpose very well - the lizards use *\«~,,,,,,
,,,,,,,~«\ pumps to empty small boxes or jars of \«~,,,,,,,
,,,,,,,,~« air, which then are left overnight and «~,,,,,,,,
,,,,,,,,,~ harvested the next day. ~,,,,,,,,,
,,,,,,,,,, ,,,,,,,,,,
