The Bees

Did I mention the bee family arrived a few weeks ago?

Well, they did! They are now installed in their new home on the field.  The three bee keepers are Steffan, Nikolai and Christian, it must be a boy thing.... or a time thing.... ; )

 

We're all very excited about the bees. Only 2 bee stings so far, Christian got stung on his eyebrow and Steffan's little brother on his arm.  The problem is we only have one bee suit and lots of interested people!

 

The queen bee seems to be there and so all is well, I think...

 

Later in the year, we put more boxes on to build up the hive.

 

No honey this year but by next spring we'll hopefully have (literally) tons of the stuff!
