Honey Gatherers of Sunderbans in Bangladesh

In the month of April, the honey collectors get ready for their jungle trip. During the whole expedition, the collectors will live on boat with a good stock of food supplies (rice, salt, oil…).

Before leaving for the expedition, the honey collectors make offerings to the goddess Bonbibi to invoke her protection.
