Wey-hey!

It briefly touched 8C today, and this is what it did for the bees at the apiary. The traditional early spring picture of Gavin's bees properly wakening up. It is 3rd April and they are still bringing in some (very) late snowdrop pollen and also something that looks very like willow. On my way back to work the willow trees near the association apiary were in flower with their silver pom-poms now yellow here and there.

First off, see what was trotting along the track on the way into the estate. Apparently there are more down near the entrance. They seem to be spreading in the Carse of Gowrie which is very welcome indeed.



Stushie at the hives.





There is more in the main forum - something on the removal of mouse guards by creature(s) unknown, and reading the floor debris.
