Yes - best wishes from me as well, Grizzly. With Margaret there the bees will still be in good hands. Kitta

Thanks Bridget and Kitta. Margaret and I are going up to Colonsay again this summer to follow up on queen rearing. I hope to come away with one of Andrews black queens to add some other genes to my bees and help avoid in-breeding. Met Andrew and had a long chat with him at the National honey show last October. I see he is listed as one of the speakers at the BIBBA conference later on in the year.
I hope you'll have better weather this time! K
Crocus pollen being carted in by the basket load! Lots of action around the entrance this morning thanks to the sun shining!
More weather like this and I will be transferring my nuc into full sized box

... and elsewhere in Belfast there were Amms piling in the pollen in the sun. Colours and local flora suggest willow, dandelion, a bit of hazel still, and who knows what else! Happy bees getting on with making big colonies in the sunshine.
See you this evening I hope BM.

I see you!

Hmmm.... my bald patch is getting bigger !
I know the feeling Phil. We can't all have a head of hair like Willy B.
Looks like a good display on the screen
LOL! That Belfast BKA display? They must be proud of it!
As well as some fine top-of-the heads of hair I do see an impressive chin of hair too! And I wasn't meaning that Santa-impersonator either.
You can see my view of the masses in the usual place here.
