So, yesterday evening after finishing mowing and strimming. I was doing a walk of the field at 8pm when I noticed a few flying bees in one corner of the field.

So I started looking for a possible swarm. And sat on the fence was the below shown swarm.

It was dark and raining before I was happy that most bees were in the box. Didn’t spot the queen

Will move them to a full hive when the weather is favourable

First swarm of 26

Swarming season is imminent

This is a box in my garden, being checked out by some scout bees. They are checking the local boxes

So hope we can catch a swarm or two

Anyone interested in some cut comb honey?
(Honey still on the comb)

Potentially, we could have some available in a few weeks.

Could sell a whole frame or by cut chunks.
Price will depend on the weight of honey.

Checking interest !

Bees bring home some beautiful orange pollen from Dandelion flowers

Hi folks

I hope to have a few jars of honey available in 4 weeks time

Spring is on its way and the hives looks generally ok. Although we will not be doing any proper inspections until it’s a bit warmer in March.

The bees were enjoying the brief sunny spell on Saturday and were busy taking some yellow pollen into the hives. Possibly a sign the queens are starting to lay fresh brood

Fingers crossed for a good season
