Spring Activity

Post by R2guilf » Sun Mar 09, 2014 5:49 pm

The beautiful weather of the last two days encourages both me and my bees to get out in the sunshine. I looked at the outside of my hives today and saw that they were doing some house cleaning (removing dead bees from the hive) and the bees arriving on the landing board had clumps of pollen on their legs. I don't have any idea where they would be getting pollen this time of year. Does anyone have any ideas?
