Tom<p>Some video of the hive entrances. Sunny and 63F/17C. That West hive is less active but those bees have a different schedule than the other two. Seems like a lot less Carniolan types in that hive.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/beekeeping" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>beekeeping</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/apiary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>apiary</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/bees" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bees</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/honeybee" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>honeybee</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/beehive" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>beehive</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/BeeVideo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BeeVideo</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/BeeMovie" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BeeMovie</span></a></p>
Tom<p>The bees today. Very busy, pollen coming in, and the West hive having a traffic jam caused by a bunch of drones on the landing board.</p><p>I haven't seen any activity at the bait hive and the bees at the other empty hives seem to be off target and taking a break.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/beekeeping" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>beekeeping</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/bees" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bees</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/beehives" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>beehives</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/apiary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>apiary</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/HoneyBee" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HoneyBee</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/BeeVideo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BeeVideo</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/BeeMovie" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BeeMovie</span></a></p>
Tom<p>Bees bringing in the pollen on Saturday morning. I estimate between 100-120 bees per minute with pollen. That could be over 1.5 grams of pollen per minute or 500 grams in 6 hours. More than a pound of pollen and they work hours than that. That's based on them only carrying 15mg of pollen but I read they can carry 30mg.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/beekeeping" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>beekeeping</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/bees" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bees</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/apiary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>apiary</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/HoneyBee" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HoneyBee</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/bee" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bee</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/April19" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>April19</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/BeeHive" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BeeHive</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/pollinators" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>pollinators</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/pollen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>pollen</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/BeeVideo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BeeVideo</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/BeeMovie" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BeeMovie</span></a></p>

Tom<p>Busy bees, April 4, 2025. Pollen going in and I see some drones at the Center hive. The hybrid willows are blooming and full of bees, and the Norway Maples, sarvis berries, peaches, and plum will be blooming in a few days probably.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/beekeeping" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>beekeeping</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/bees" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bees</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/BeeVideo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BeeVideo</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/apiary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>apiary</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/bee" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bee</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/BeeMovie" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BeeMovie</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/April4" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>April4</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/WinterBees" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WinterBees</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/BeeHive" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BeeHive</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/pollinators" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>pollinators</span></a></p>

Tom<p>I put the oxalic acid pads in the hives today. Each hive gets 50 grams of oxalic acid that is mixed with 50 grams of glycerin. The glycerin is heated to LESS than 170F/76C before the oxalic acid is mixed in and then the Swedish dishcloths are cut in half and soaked in the mixture.</p><p>This was the Center hive that has the most bees.</p><p>No stings, no drama, no surprises.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/beekeeping" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>beekeeping</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/bees" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bees</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/apiary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>apiary</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/HiveCheck" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HiveCheck</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/March25" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>March25</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/BeeVideo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BeeVideo</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/TheBeeKeeper" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TheBeeKeeper</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/CCBYNCND" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CCBYNCND</span></a></p>

Tom<p>The water is going down and it's not leaking now since I sealed the print but this is the most bees I've seen drinking water.</p><p>This is a bit ridiculous since the hives are 75 feet away from *illions of gallons of water but there's always one or two bees at the dog water, or the geese water, or on dripping faucets. It can't hurt and maybe I'll put a bit of salt and minerals in it for them.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/beekeeping" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>beekeeping</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/bees" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bees</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/apiary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>apiary</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/beehive" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>beehive</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/BeeVideo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BeeVideo</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/MastodonOnly" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MastodonOnly</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/CCBYNCND" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CCBYNCND</span></a></p>
Tom<p>The strongest hive early this afternoon today. The drones are cleaning themselves for any potential encounters as the workers bring food in. I made some little U-shaped water troughs. I've been filling up small jar lids sometimes with water and they seem to drink it so I made something so the water would last longer.</p><p>It holds about 60ml or 4 Tbsp.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/beekeeping" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>beekeeping</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/bees" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bees</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/apiary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>apiary</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/beehive" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>beehive</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/BeeVideo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BeeVideo</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/MastodonOnly" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MastodonOnly</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/CCBYNCND" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CCBYNCND</span></a></p>
