Bee lore and customs

[tonybloke]

Well I've heard of pigeon quoits and the rest is supposition.

The pigeon cote, dovecote, columbarium, culvery, and doocot are all in simple terms a home for pigeons. The terms columbarium, culvery, and doocot are of Roman, Cornish, and Scottish heritage respectively, while the term dovecote is of English extraction.
