🐝💗Our Backyard Beekeeping Journey!💗🐝

[Apis mellifera]

I don't have a vaporizer, so it would have to be an OA dribble. Highs in the upper 40s/low 50s and overnight lows around freezing.

OAD is fine above 32 F.

I feel like I should be doing bee things...lol I think it was 37°F this morning. Looking at a high of 58, so I'm sure the girls will be flying.

I will be waxing the hive boxes hubs built at some point between now and spring. We have a lot of projects going on at our place, per usual. So not sure when that will happen.

I also need to finish up the article I've been working on, now that it's almost winter, I might have more time. I have access to my computer again, so that will be much easier to type and edit on, than my phone. After I publish, I will be adding more once spring hits and I learn more about swarm control.

It was 22°F here this morning. It got up to 48°F and is currently 42°F. Not much bee activity today.

Replaced 7 empty quarts of syrup out of 12 today. Really slowing down and taking longer to empty. Have 1 1/2 gallons mixed. Hopefully I can use it up. Haven't wrapped the hives yet. Predicted temps for November are kind of odd. No need for wrap if I believe it. Think I'll use my stand on the back porch at 4AM thermometer to decide. Very, very little bee activity today.

43F, high of 50, rainy, windy, pretty raw feel outside. No activity to speak of.
