The Bees of Ledgeview, WI have requested a post on the blog (as they've had no time to go on social media with all the honey comb building). They are doing awesome! Mostly they work with few complaints other than the photo above (taken in late June ) when they started getting really hot and threatened to leave--Dylan responded and built them some vents--it was received well by the bees. They went through a mean streak in mid July when Dylan was stung thrice (but we are letting them blame it on the extreme humidity--as we sometimes blame our own attitudes. Dylan pointed out that the lifespan of a worker bee is only a few months, so none of the current bee are the ones we originally bought (amazing!). The below photos are from late June when Dylan showed my family the bees!
Paul!
There hasn't been a slip of a frame out of these tongs yet (which is surprising to me--'m always so nervous!)
Dads!
