Hives are well. Not producing as much honey as I’d like to see. But at least we got a little this year.
How’s your bee population?
23 hives and about 30,000 bees per hive. ๐
Doing my best to keep them healthy and sweet. When we get an African-ized hive we re-queen and get them better behaved.
That’s great! 30,000? That’s a lot, no?
30,000 per hive for 23 hives. Not terrible. But a drop in the bucket of what the population needs to be.
Onward and upward.

The drop in bed populations is concerning. ๐
Between the GM seeds, and the insecticide, pesticides, and herbicides. It’s not easy being a bee anymore.
Lovely๐
The photos are beautiful! And, you managed to capture a bee collecting pollen, too.
I thought the bee was really cool. It’s not a honey bee, I think it’s a Mason bee.
Like a brick layer? ๐
Sacred order of Mason’s ๐
haha! Yes, descendants of The Knights Templar.
So beautiful ๐..
love sunflowers ๐ป..
And you did get some super shots…
Thanks for sharing the wonderful beauty…
That’s so kind. I appreciate you.
Awesome such nice and simple lines. Amazing pictures
Thanks so much. I couldn’t believe they turned out so well. It’s hit or miss with me and the camera on my phone. I’m glad I hit this one.
Yes absolutely fantastic pictures Wendy
Love the first one! We need some rain here pretty bad. Getting really dry already. ๐
I want to play with the black and white on that one.
How are the hives?

Hey my friend, I’ve missed seeing your posts. Hope you are well!
Thanks. I’ve been traveling and had little Internet access. So now I’m playing catch up. It’s good to be back.
Lovely happy flowers ๐ป
