in latitude 54.5 dg. North (24 dg East ) do have. Last 2 years a frost
almost reached a mark of 30 dg. Celsius. My "bee friend" often used to lose
his bees. The reason was simple. Bees ate honey in low frames and could not
find the upper ones. Maybe, they occurred at the top of the first frame
right while frost? They died with plenty of food above. He tried to diminish
a space among lower and upper frames. Nothing helped. He refused mediums and
now has only deeps.
