    Default Holiday Bees

    I am currently on holiday in Kitzbuhel in Austria. On Sunday I met up with an Austrian beekeeper who runs about 50 colonies of Carniolan bees in St Johann. She was telling me their season last years was not that bad but this season is going to be a better one due the the good weather we are experiencing.

    Just an update. There are Carnies working everywhere over here. A few people have been stung when walking on the grass near the open air swimming pools, including my cousin.
