Slow Mo Bees

Check this out!  Watched the girls working for quite awhile this weekend.  Filmed this slow motion video for your enjoyment.  It cracks me up how some miss the opening and bounce off the door to try it again!  Check out the pods of yellow pollen on some of these girls' legs!  Things are finally starting to bloom!!   You will have to push the play key twice to make it go....



I will receive a package of bees next weekend and get them set up in a hive down in the corner of the field.  That hive will have an electric fence in an effort to shock off any sniffing bears!

The following week, a nuc (a package of bees with frames, brood, bees, and queen) arrives and it will go to Hoback.  The timing seems good.  Things are starting to turn.  Hummingbirds spotted in Freedom and in Hoback.
