Time to see where the bees live. They have a wonderful setting in an old orchard, with cherries, plums and gages, pears and apples to keep them happy from March to May.
The series of photos shows the row of hives (with the end ones strapped in preparation for the summer visit of the sheep who take some time to learn that these scratching posts have defensive occupants), the view out to the old trees, and the view they get on their way back in after stopping off at the clover in the grass. The pictures were taken last summer.
