I had it backed up to a thing called a time machine,

Use the cloud and or an external drive

Found a photo of WBCs in my garden, knew I had one somewhere

Were they covered for long?

Yes, too long. That winter I learnt the importance of hive insulation. My next visit after the photos were taken, I discovered a roughly half inch gap between the hive walls and the snow where the heat from the hive had melted the snow.

Last decent snow here in W .Sx was 2010.
The small nuc was empty and was awaiting a quick clean up.

Nice covering here, but not too bad. Someone is enjoying it!

 

[E&MBees]

Snowing here too, although our dog is not enjoying it as much as yours Amanda.

We had six flakes of snow fall this morning ... the warning went out that trains may be late and buses could stop running .... the locals live in mortal fear of the white stuff ....people already panic buying in case their overstocks of Covid rolls run out ....

First time in 15 years we have had snow whilst the Christmas lights are still up. Woo hoo.

 

[user 819]

No snow here just very nippy.

Lovely photos! We had an enthusiastic fall of big fat flakes here yesterday but it didn't last long and melted shortly thereafter. I am on the valley floor here though.
On the downside, I haven't seen the longtailed tits for 2 or 3 days now.

Bit of snow yesterday. Dogs, as always enjoyed it. And we were thankful of homemade tomato soup.
