I'm not in the northeast... central va... 80 deg today...

Been feeding hives for sometime.

We actually have walking drones in some hives as of last week... I suspect
Bob is right about very early swarming.

So far I have had zero losses out of 59 hives. 2 are weak so they most
likly won't make it unless something changes or I give them brood and bees.
But 2 weak out of 59 with no actual losses isn't that bad.

I'm looking for the best year yet... maybe its just spring fever attitude
but we shall see.

Those who havnt fed might be in trouble...

Back to the low 50s tommorow...

Doug
