Today it was warm - the weather cooperated and we didn't have anything unusual like snow, hail or Oobleck, so we could continue with our inspection. We had a great time and ended it with a taste of honey. Click on the slideshow below to get a larger view with captions:
This is the tale that began in 2006 in my first year of beekeeping in Atlanta, GA. ...there's still so much to learn.

I began this blog to chronicle my beekeeping experiences. I have read lots of beekeeping books, but nothing takes the place of either hands-on experience with an experienced beekeeper or good pictures of the process. I want people to have a clearer picture of what to expect in their beekeeping so I post pictures and write about my beekeeping saga here. Along the way, I've passed a number of certification levels and am now a Master Beekeeper! Enjoy with me as I learn and grow as a beekeeper.

Hi Linda
ReplyDeleteYou inspection photos are great. My wife and I spend quite a while looking for the queen, and found it! I love your foundation=less frames. I am planning to do some next season. Thanks for a very good post.
I really enjoy your blog. Those frames are just covered in bees. How wonderful.
