Yes,they will keep warm..and there will be some lose..so goes the continuing
saga of the wonderful world of beekeeping...but "by-golly"..nature has it's
glorious way of recovering.
Maine has gone through quite a bit of "topsy-turvy" changes in weather..now
we are in a very cold snap..temps in the low teens and the wind sheild must
be in the minus numbers.
Bees were just enjoying themselves a few days ago..flying to their hearts
content.
I too have this "problem" about worrying about the "ladies".
Hang in there Billy-B, may your bees (soon)fly with joy and your honey crop
overflow
