Have you ever wanted to be a backyard beekeeper but didn't know where to start? Join us for our Beekeeping 101 series, being held twice a month, to learn the basics about beekeeping. Our first class in this series will be held on Monday June 5th at 1 pm SLT and our second one will be Saturday June 17th at 8 am SLT.
Also, stay tuned as we are working hard to bring you more classes on native bees, honey bees, other pollinators and all of the ways we can enrich and help save their lives.
Classes will be held at the WTB Learning Center. 🐝
... four brand new combs were hanging from the lintel - what a pity we couldn't have kept it like this as an observation hive. It was joke - but his wife hesitated for a moment as I showed her returning foragers doing their famous figure-of-eight dance. Out of the shower and into a bit of naked bee observation - not something you can often do! But he was not convinced. he wanted them out and I set about trying to transfer the colony to a hive ...
These types of hives are all made with local materials.

Lalazar, at an elevation of 3,123 metres (10,246 ft) is located in upper #KaghanValley in Mansehra District of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Province of #Pakistan. #Kaghan Valley is an alpine-climate valley. The valley extends 155 kilometres (96 mi), rising from an elevation of 650 m to its highest point, the Babusar Pass, at 4,200 m. In Winter, the glaciers block the roads leading to #Kaghan Valley. These glaciers melt during March to May. From May to September, the roads and Babusar Pass is open to traffic.

Thank you for taking the time to view or comment on my Photostream, it is appreciated.
January edition of BeeCraft magazine.
I won the BeeCraft photo of the month photo of the year (if that makes sense) for 2022!
I never really enter anything but always look at the photo of the month winners in BeeCraft and enjoy them. Then earlier this year I saw my Flickr contact M E For Bees (Was Margaret Edge The Bee Girl) picture winning and somehow knowing someone that had won made me think I should enter something too.
This picture has always been one of my favourites and it seemed the obvious choice. It has been used for a poster and a book for Belfast beekeepers previously.

I am happy to report that I successfully rebuilt the apiary this summer after last years collapse due solely to aerial insecticide spray for mosquitoes. Sadly there will be little to no honey surplus this year.
For the Northern Hemisphere, Earth's axis points most toward the Sun in June (specifically around June 21), and away from the sun around December 21. This corresponds to the Winter and Summer Solstice.

I tidied up Apideas.
These are to host tiny colonies for purposes of getting queens from cell raisers mated. I cleaned out old boxes today, put new wax foundation in the plastic frames, and added some fondant to each box and painted the fronts in the notion that it will make them distinctive to a queen returning from a mating flight.
Ready now to add bees when I have queen cells or virgin queens from queen rearing.

Moore Farm Estates; Hull; Gatineau, Quebec.

The Moore Farm Estate is a unique location in the area. In addition to the natural beauty offered by the estate, the site has great historical value. Philemon Wright, his first owner in 1824, is also the founder of the city of Hull. The estate was later sold to the Parker-Moore family in 1872, which was transferred to the Canadian government in 1973 through the National Capital Commission (CNN)." - translated

The stable, a heritage building completed in 1910 in the Queen Anne's Revival style, was restored before the co-op took over.
Moore Farm is one of 90 urban farms the NCC leases on federal lands in the National Capital Region.
