If it's too cold they can't move to where the honey is and therefore starve even in the face of plenty.Linda Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08089537760868691562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27329001.post-62959442369814428312013-01-08T07:14:27.669-05:002013-01-08T07:14:27.669-05:00Linda, new to this site, but I too have experience...Linda, new to this site, but I too have experienced 4 hive loses since Sept. the forth just this weekend.

The first was a cat "catching" a mouse (it teased and tortured the poor thing for ages before killing it!) and soon after was in the shed and heard a buzzing sound....It was an insect in a spiders web. It took ages before the spider had eventually wrapped the frantically buzzing insect up alive...My point here is, is that you are working with the bees in nature and in nature survival can get ugly! <br />You do a great job and love and respect the bees (your co-creators) so don't be too hard on yourself and nature...that's just how it is sometimes.<br />Greetings<br />WarrenAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27329001.post-34933560297728975922012-08-05T12:51:20.180-04:002012-08-05T12:51:20.180-04:00Linda, I am so sorry that you lost this hive.
