New Tenants / Our First “Wild Hive”

First Hive Inspection of 2021 (March 11, 2021)

To view these pictures full size, click on them. Click your browser’s back button to return to this page. Well, the weather finally got right (meaning a couple nights in a row where it didn’t go below 50 degrees) and we were able to go into the hives for our first look of the 2021 […]

Our First Honey Harvest! (August 11, 2019)

This was the day we had been waiting for. It was finally time to pull some honey! All of the classes, preparation and waiting had finally come to an end. I lit the smoker, we suited up and went to the apiary. This is when I realized that one person simply doesn’t have enough hands to harvest honey and take pictures. My wonderful wife and bee keeper extraordinaire Cynthia, took care of the photo documentation duties.

Getting Ready For Honey (The Bucket)

A Walk By Observation (June 27, 2019)

To view these pictures full size, click on them. Click your browser’s back button to return to this page.      Bees are interesting creatures and I just can’t go more than a few days without looking in on them.

Hive Inspection (March 9, 2019)

{Click the pictures to see them larger & more detailed | click the back arrow to return here.} This was our first in-depth look into the hive this year. I did actually do some work earlier (I took the bagged sugar that we fed them over the winter off the hive) but I didn’t actually […]

“Walk By” Video (August 26, 2018)

     As we kind of consider ourselves “bee foster parents” we will occasionally just poke our heads into the apiary and check on the girls from time to time (usually 4 to 5 times a week), sometimes more, sometimes less. We don’t actually go into the hive each time because we would just assume NOT to […]
