We has Terry Clare as a visitor at our regular queen rearing group meeting tonight - fresh up from Gormanston last week.
I just heard this morning that he was in the neighbourhood.
It was nice to be able to show him our set up and we had about 25 beekeepers in attendance as well.
We had nothing special planned but about 8 mated queens were removed from apideas and new queen cells were put straight in.
Terry was able to cast his eye over a few fine looking queens grafted off a Galtee mother.
This is Terry holding forth beside the very gate from which I once evicted a donkey from the apiary. (see avatar)
