Young bees taking orientation flights today. These are some of the young bees that will overwinter in the hives. The winter bees have more fat stores and are programmed by nature to live through the winter months.
The weather is warm today and the bees are swarming, two catches within 10’ of each other. The work has begun.
We start feeding the bees a pollen substitute before spring flow (when the plants start blooming) so the queen will lay more eggs and the work force is bigger before the plants start blooming. That way the hive is strong and ready to work when there is nectar to gather.
It’s November the 5th and the girls are still busy, at this rate they will get to watch me cook the turkey 😁.
