He talks about insulating hives in the " The Lives of Bees" ...
I thought I'd just drop that in
Which of the legendary T Seeley's books does he write about tracking bee's please?
had go at tracking bees from a water supply (a muddy shallow pond) to see which hives were fetching water. It turned out that a single poly hive was fetching 8 times more water than the 3 artificial tree hives put together and it was happening consistently for a period of a few weeks. So you can find out more than just were they come from.
Maybe that’s one reason why we see poly hives busier than wooden ones earlier in the year?
These artificial tree hives lose substantially less heat than poly and are 1.7m tall externally 1.3m internally
