Cold and Cloudy Day For The Bees

4/24/2017

1 Comment

 
I checked on their sugar water this morning, but it was chilly and never really warmed up all day. They weren't outside the hive much at all. I'm hoping they're okay, because the mass that was under the lid yesterday, (see yesterday's photos) wasn't there this morning. I'm assuming they were down along the frames perhaps to stay warm. It's supposed to rain/snow tomorrow and twice more this week. Not a a very welcoming weather pattern for the start of their season. 

I wanted to show a drone from yesterday, which is labeled The Boy Bee. Drones are bigger than the females with distinct coloring that is notably darker than the girls, and they have gold bands instead of dark stripes. Young bees will often be quite golden and have a "baby" look about them. I think they're quite cute.

    This blog will cover what I learn being a guardian of honey bees. I will also share with you about my connection with bees in ways that you won't often find in books or other sources.

    For All The Animals (this website) is my company. Inspiring young people to learn about and love nature is very important to me.

     I'm also a private investigator, writer, photographer and activist. Nature is my religion. 

    One of my goals through the use of a camera lens is to bring the world of  what I call "tiny life" into focus, to expand our own. I want to share my belief that all life matters. 

    My photography passion extends to all animals, birds, marine life and reptiles. I posit that if the human race embraced that single concept -- all life matters -- we'd be closer to peace on this beautiful and glorious, but quite messed up planet.
