Boost The Bees

This is a quick video that shows you how honey bees sometimes choose to fly in and out from the upper entrance. That's the inner cover entrance that they're using. This can make it difficult when you're trying to work the hive because so many of the foragers are coming into and out of that upper entrance when you are in there trying to remove frames.

It's just one of those funny things that honey bees do sometimes! Have your bees ever done this?

I'm going to take a guess here that we're now seeing the bees bring in golden yellow pollen from Dandelion! The pale yellow pollen is from Silver Maple and has been coming in for a bit now! Are you seeing any other colors coming in Denver?

60-70°F days here in Denver, CO with the bees! 🥰 I noticed dandelion greens coming up today...won't be long! 🌼🪻🌷

Been watering our front yard in February due to the lack of moisture we've seen this winter. Hoping the bees are adjusting to this wacky world too! 🙃 Hope everyone is hanging in there!

These are the trees on our property and I'm so grateful to have an abundance of established trees for the bees! 🌳

We've also planted a Golden Raintree, Kentucky Coffee Tree, Hawthorn and a Gingko, but no buds on those ones yet.

My neighbor has a huge Silver Maple tree, but I couldn't even reach the lowest hanging branches to grab a sample. It's one of the very first trees here in Denver that puts out an abundance of pollen for the bees! Did you know trees are a huge pollen source for honey bees?

What trees do you have in your yard and are they budding yet?

Reducing pesticide use is critical. Ideally, pesticides would be eliminated altogether. This article is worth the read if you have a few moments. Raising our own awareness and overall public awareness of the effects and consequences of pesticide use is a step in the right direction. So much harm is being done to every generation and we need to reevaluate and see the truth of this issue. It starts with learning about the issue and forming your own thoughts, opinions, and actions about what you can do to make a positive impact...even if it's just sharing this to increase awareness.

In a move that reflects mounting US opposition to a class of harmful insecticides linked to environmental and human health risks, Colorado lawmakers last week introduced a bill to curb the use of neonicotinoids.
