    One of our sources of free bees. Did occur to me that it might be a new nuc that's been put in there but there was a colony in there on its own comb a few weeks ago.

    I think that it is some sort of bird nest hotel. Maybe organised by position in the food chain, blue tits, robins, starlings, owls and kestrels. Or something.

    Same as all my posts!

    Whoever is at the top of that mal assembled piece of woodwork can't be feeling too good.

    A melting clock or the mystical warre hive?

    Given its innate naturalness I can see why it might be the warre. After all a melting clock is a devil to hang straight.

    Nellie, just out of interest, is there an entrance somewhere? Is there glass behind the shutters? Is that old comb on the floor?

    Entrance is on the right I think but might equally be the other side. Yes there's glass behind the shutters, no idea if that's comb I didn't take the photo
