  • My bees!

    Well, after finding lots and lots of dead bees outside the hive Thursday evening I was so pleased to see them very, busy on Sunday, bringing in huge amounts of bright yellow pollen. It's a good sign, maybe they are rearing brood now!!!
    Don't quite know why so many dead ones were dragged out of the hive. It's been a steady few over the past 2 months! A lot for me to learn!
    Fingers are crossed for my girls.

    Glad to hear the bees seem to be okay HF. It must have been worrying to find a load of deceased ones. I have had a good few bumble bees enjoying my heather patch lately and there was a humungus bumbler in the greenhouse yesterday.
    Happy Gardening,

      Glad too to hear about the bumble bees looking like they're on the up.

              Someone on our site has a plot just for bee hives - he has about 8 hives on there. It's away from the other plots & I don't think it would have been cultivated if he hadn't been using it. And all those little bees are helping pollinate our plants!

                  They look great Headfry. Do you think they would like to have a holiday in my "orchard" I could do with some to pollenate my fruit trees
