🐝 DID YOU KNOW? 🐝
Sometimes a bee resting inside a flower is not dead or sick — it may simply be taking a little nap and waiting for the morning warmth. 🌸
These tiny pollinators work hard for our flowers, fruits, and food.
Give resting bees a chance to wake up before picking flowers.
Even the smallest act of kindness can help protect these incredible creatures. 💛🐝
Let the flowers bloom, let the bees rest, and let nature thrive. 🌼

We are in the middle of our summer dearth period, with little to no pollen or nectar sources close to our hives. Last year I set up feeders inside of each hive, but with the temperatures running above 100 degrees I hate opening the hives and (1) seeing the ladies hard worked wax staring to melt almost immediately and (2) knowing that they will have to work all the harder to cool the hive back down. This summer I've set up several hanging feeders, and some plant stands with bucket feeders (and a handful of pollen feeders) around the apiary - enough to discourage the need to defend a single source. So far, the ladies aren't fighting over the food - just gathering and heading back to the hives. I love watching them as they feed!!!!

Just a few quick pics of some of our ladies enjoying some of the community feeders. We have a handful of supplemental feeders scattered around the apiary - enough to discourage fighting, as well as a feeder in each of our weaker hives. The dearth season in Texas is brutal!!! These are some of the ladies sipping sugar syrup with pollen and HBH from a feeder sitting on one of our picnic benches. I love just sitting there watching them!

Hello, friends! We are taking a short break while we move from the house to the apiary! LOL, if anyone is interested in a single-story ranch house on 3.9 acres, 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, 2100 sq ft for the main residence, 2 outbuildings, detached garage with additional room overhead, a 30 x 50 x 14 (h) metal building with loft, and a pool just holler!!! 😀🤣😍
