I've been lurking for a while, had a very long - over 30 years long - break from beekeeping but started again a few years ago. Keeping up with the unconventional I do my beekeeping horizontally :o now on the west coast of Scotland. :)

The Season started of good and the bees where hammering the rape..had one failed swarm with a clipped Queen lost and then the weather went back to winter..i think that Queen read the BBC news and tried social distancing..it never worked..lol
