Hi All
D Thompson and others report on their wintering results, but give no
indication of where they live. Its a big world out there and all
beekeeping is local. Although mention of Sahara and Pyrenees is
made, I suspect D Thompson lives in northern US somewhere. I find
it more interesting when I know where the bees are kept.
