Hi Guys
I am working with Reading Uni with a pollination project.
I have popped 30 hives on one of the sites which is on one of the many fields of OSR in the neighbourhood not too far from Tetbury.
This afternoon, the freindly farmers wife saw someone dressed in a beesuit in the field. It was not me or a member of Reading Uni, and the person had gone by the time the farmer got there to challenge them (first making sure I had not aurhorised them to be there)
If it was someone on this forum, please pm me. I am sure it was innocent interest, but would rather know it was a 'friendly' and not someone scoping how large a van they need to cart them away.
I have a couple of 'electronic gadgets' helping to trap any unsuspecting thieves which have not been triggered, and have not yet tracked the webcams leading to the field.
If it was you, please do not post the open forum with details of the location.
If the interest is innocent, I am happy to answer questions or give a tour of the hives.
Cheers
Pete
