ESBA Apiarist

Two leaps forward at the association apiary today. I had need of a queen for one of the failed polynucs so fetched one from an Apidea and introduced it in a Butler cage. The Apidea had comb at all angles so I took that to bits in the process of finding the queen. The feeder unit was a convenient place for a spare slab of sealed brood. Anyway, job done and another protected queen cell took her place.

The second milestone? A media interview at the apiary. Was anyone watching Scottish Television news this evening?
