The First Forage Day in 2013

While working outdoors I heard a buzzing sound and I quickly went to search for the one making it; and there it was :) a Honey Bee ... few of them actually all over the Snow Drops in my backyard :) Oh, how gorgeous they are!
I even saw one Bumble Bee, 2 Butterflies, and one solitary bee (?).
Here is a video of a few bees;
and a few pics;




The bee season has most definitely begun! Soon enough I will be preparing the bait hives and even buy 2 new colonies. Cant wait

  1. Then you get your own farm. Spend some money and buy thousands of snowdrops and crocus. Put them in hedges and so on.
    Its very nice to see this in the early spring and its worth a lot for the bees.

    I buy 600 crocus onions a year.

    1. 600 crocus!!! Where do you place them? How much do they cost and where do you but them?
