        I have noticed quite a few colonies that will not take syrup
since last fall. At that time I was feeding corn syrup with fumidil, even
some strong colonies ingnored the feed long after the last flow. Same
this spring. These colonies have gone downhill while the ones accepting
feed have built normaly.
