Making a honey delivery in the neighborhood this morning. I love repeat customers!

My husband was always concerned about some of the trees near our beehives possibly falling and damaging our hives. We were lucky that the falling branches and trees fell in the right direction.

I had a little time to check on our garden and noticed the pollinators were doing their job. We got a late start on our garden this year so the garden isn’t as full as it usually is. I totally enjoyed watching our bees at work in the garden though.

Did you know bees get hot too?

I knew we were going to be busy this weekend, so I squeezed in a quick hive inspection of three hives yesterday. I checked the two hives that were swarms from Southgate and Cincinnati. Even though I didn’t physically see the queens, there was proof that the queen had been at work. The Cincy hive was full of capped brood.
I checked my one hive at home that was my own swarm that moved into a swarm trap that was set up. I found the queen and she is also laying eggs.

This sweet swarm in Ludlow this morning decided it wasn’t sticking around to wait for me to get my smoker lit. They literally swarmed right in front of me and left. That was a first.

Bees are great weather predictors

🐝🌤️ “If bees stay at home, rain will soon come; if they fly away, fine will be the day.”

For centuries, beekeepers and farmers looked to the bees for clues about the weather. When the skies are fair and the air is calm, the bees head out in force — dancing through the sunshine and hard at work. 🌼☀️

Do you still trust nature’s signsfor the forecast? 🌦️

Crestview Hills was our swarm location today. It was a smaller swarm,but as long as the queen is in the box that’s what matters

A busy day it was for me. With a swarm removal in the middle of the day. This swarm was in downtown Cincinnati on a security camera. They were City Bees this morning and Country bees by the afternoon. Their new neighbors are the Southgate swarm we got last Saturday.
