    The roof is back

    Five hours and three people later and the roof was back on. It was a good excuse to have a good clean out and a lot of old woodwork was disposed of. The bees are doing ok and this Sunday 6th March I had a look at the pollen patties that I had put on last week. The results were interesting. The...

    What did you do in the Apiary today?

    Went to check on hives, all were flying around midday and all were carrying pollen in. First time that I can really say that this year. I was a little suprised as it was only 7C according to the car temperature gauge. Topped up fondent and pollen patties and guess that it is time to start...

    Where's the roof?

    Just enjoying a leisurely Sunday morning and thinking about braving the rain to go and check my own bees and the association hives when the phone rings. It is my mother "I think you had better come early as I think one of the hives has lost a roof". We normally go to Sunday lunch so it was...

    Beekeeping Professionals

    I would think most people who contribute to this site are very professional in their approach to working with bees. Some may also keep bees as a commercial venture and we can all learn from each other:party:

    Honey Refractometer

    I have had problems with heather honey fermenting in the jar. I am assuming that is because the moisture content was too high, so I am thinking of buying a refractometer for this summer. I wondered if anyone had any thoughts on the £12 to £20 versions on a well known auction site or should I...

    Bees in schools 2

    Following the success of the bees at my sons' school, my brother's school in Leeds expressed interest in also having bees and my brother asked me for help. Being over 100 miles away I contacted LBKA to see if they could help. In early January a local beekeeper and I met the teachers from the...
