Not for the first time, the girls get some sun, and stretch their wings over the garden.

Bloody bees

First inspection of 2022

We crop our first season’s honey, and enjoy the sense of fulfilment and learning that comes with this pass-time.

Bees swarming

Our first swarms

Things have been a little frustrating, and we need more “golf shots” to keep us motivated.
