Hello All:
   I feel like we are really behind all of our southern conterparts when I post this,
but I have seen our FIRST fresh pollen coming into the hives today, from the willows. So
I guess I can figure spring has finally sprung here in the Great White North. :)
   Bees look much better this spring than last, good size and good reserves of feed.
   We haven't unwrapped yet, we have traditionally done it at about this time, but I
have noticed over the last number of years that the last ones unwrapped tend to do the
best, it normally takes us about 10 days to unwrap and reverse the outfit. If the
weather stays good, probably add a few days because of  poor weather.
Best regards
Tim
