I didn’t watch all of that... but what I saw didn’t seem like ‘strange places’...

My great aunt Edna had a room at the end of the hall that she always kept the door closed... one time I looked in when I went to use the restroom and it was a lot weird nude paintings of Elvis, Roy Orbison... and ...maybe Sinatra? ...not sure?

That’s a strange place... and there were no bees there

Nude paintings of Elvis and Sinatra
What?!!? And I thought my family was weird.

You didn't watch long enough to see the bees in the kangaroo?
And this guy...

Ok I’ll have to watch again... I’m gonna need to see a bee filled kangaroo so I have something to talk to the mail lady about...

That bearded guy looks like a Cajun... he’s probably making bee gumbo or something

It nots a real kangaroo.

Better pictures of yesterday’s bee box visit.

The bottom Two are one of the two frames I moved to the weak hive after brushing the bees off and into their box.

The top one was just to show her egg patterns and the second one is to show off her beauty. She appears to be a hard working girl.

The two below this is to show where I placed the bees in relationship to flowers. When I walk through the field I find lots of bees down low in the flowers working.

There are a lot of milk weeds that should start blooming before too long.

That’s my son with me and waving to his wife.

Those bulgy cells on some of your frames... are those drones? If there were queen cells, would they run out longer than that?

Not a real kangaroo!? I can tolerate a lot of things, but fake kangaroos are where I draw the line ...

Me and my bees are jealous of those wildflowers and your setup!
