a wonderful day to stretch your wings (and carry out the dead)! the hives will also use a warm day like this to transfer honey down from the top of the hive to the bottom, so it’s easier to reach while they’re clustering.
58 degrees and sunny — time for a cleansing flight! (the bees are very sanitary + don’t go to the bathroom inside the hive, so they wait for a warm day and go outside...)
just heard the @WyckoffMuseum central heating system stopped working... Welcome to our world! They should simply unhook their wings and shiver to stay warm, like we do.
