29 years and counting...so much more to do and see. We are lucky, indeed and feeling blessed. Things in the bee yard have been a bit rocky of late and not so great. We discovered wax moth larvae in are strongest hive but decided to see if we could beef things up by feeding the bees to build up the colony. It seems as if they were out of MOJO when we initially went into the hive about 2 weeks ago & the honey stores were all gone. As of this afternoon, we are optimistic that the bees have rallied and fought off the moth. We saw fresh larvae but never spotted the queen...we are assuming we missed her and hope to spot her the next time we dive into the hive.
