This is more of a temporary visitor today at Wilk Apiary North. We also have another mommy robin back under our front awning like last year. I saw 2 very hungry baby robins getting fed by their mom.

I wonder if I was one of those children who used to always pick up rocks?
Haven’t gotten some stone in a while what the heck!

Well the Queens have arrived. The plan is to split 10-15 hives by tomorrow.
I will mix where these special Buckfast Queens will go and make sure I label the hives they are in.
1st time using this breed and very excited as they are supposed to be super chill and good honey producers.

Swarms are interesting. This time of year they mean you got a colony of honeybees through a very tough winter.
They are healthy and want to carry on their genetics by creating another colony.

I rarely do swarms. Skipped a market today because I was under the weather and this swarm decided not to leave yesterday (rain).
So, I went out and put about 15,000 honeybees in a box to make a new hive.

Since bee work is starting I just want to finish my office wall! Those that know me are well aware of my lack of carpentry skills. So, I decided that I wanted to do my office at Wilk Apiary North all by myself. A ton of help from my beekeeping neighbor with the curling, but I have cut every piece of my reclaimed barn wood wall. Neighbors will help me finish with trim to hide what’s not perfect.
For me it’s a sense of accomplishment and I’m proud of stepping outside my comfort zone.
Next job at Wilk Apiary North is building the electric fence for the apiary behind the building. Want to keep the 400 # furry neighbor from eating our honeybees.
