It is funny this southern hemisphere view.

While you talk about winter preparation we strugle coming out of a terrible
spring.

We had a false start at the end of winter (august). Colonies grew quite
happy and ate most of their reserves.

Then it came the winter back and doesn't want to go away. Cold and lots of
rain. I haven't stop feeding. I am using next autum budget. Many of my
colleagues with less budget are loosing colonies. Feed or die.

What an awfull season. I hope it improves soon. Bloom is almost a month late
and some of them have been lost due to frost.

Probably CCD will be around here soon.
