Ok, I've never really blogged about my beekeeping before. It's an interest I've had for may be 10 years, but my early forays were so dispiriting that I gave it away from a while. When I did return, it was via Australian stingless bees, Trigonula Carbonara. These guys are hardy and though production is limited, they need little maintenance. But I needed more of a challenge.
Last January, when the drought was petwring out, I got a new nuc. These were transferred you an 8 frame, deep box and yesterday it was described by my mentor as "the best hive ever".
Today, I returned to add an Ideal super and sugar feeder
