Bee Day!! (Really an A Day)


The rains of yesterday gave way to a brilliant sunny day perfectly suited for opening up the bee hive. They were busy as their name implies and intent on building out the wax comb. The queen was easy to see because she has a blue mark on her. There are larvae in the cells so everything is happening according to plan.
I also managed to get all the tomatoes transplanted and the cucumbers and squashes planted which would have been the highlight of the day last year when we were more horticulturally focused. Now it's all about the bees.
