lost my colony

Do take care of your wax - comb is golden in more ways than one!

Today was sunny and warm, 31° in the shade. It was really interesting to see how many bee's come out to die. You never see them in the grass, but on a blanket of white snow you can find them every where in about a 60' circle. Many others were out and about sunning and cleansing. So cool to have them alight and hitch a ride on me for a while before moving off.

Sorry to hear you lost your hives Latestarter! I too am getting new bees, placed order all ready. For now back to the books and study time.
Good luck everyone who is dealing with the blizzard!

My bees survived the blizzard.

I had some frames of honey that I gave them about a month ago. I also gave them two of those winter patties. They don't seem to be into them yet. I figure that i have about 5 weeks to go before I can give them sugar surup. I think they will be ok.
