I needed to present you this stunning Spring show of flowers within the native TAFE car-park. So pleased with our council for planting these pretty shows throughout our city.
Bee enterprise…
I bought stung close to my eye by one among our bees! Evidently I’ve had a really uncomfortable couple of days with a swollen face and my proper eye pushed shut though I used to be in a position to open it barely because the day wore on. Our bees determined to swarm, so Phil needed to shortly arrange one other hive to recapture them. They’re all properly buzzing round once more, though they appear to be extra aggressive right now of yr as I discovered ha! We now have gone from 4 hives to seven and two small nuke containers. Phil was requested to go and rescue a swarm the opposite day, which he did efficiently. We’re going to have to put a few of the hives on our buddies properties as I believe there are too many bees for us to have right here now. We did a small honey pull to make room for our increasing colonies.
The swarm…
