During the last few days of hotness I've had the telescopic cover propped up with a rock in the front which gave the bees ventilation and a nice hive top entrance through the whole in the intercover. Yesterday, without smoking the bees, I took off the top cover. There were 5 different dances happening on different areas of the intercover. So cool to see the dancing. The other girls coming out to join in. It was a great thing to watch without disturbing anything.
Don't you think Bees are the greatest thing going
kirk-o :-D :-D :-D
BlueEggFarmer. Aren't you lucky to get a glimpse of your girls doing their hoola dances :) This world of the bee is the most fascinating thing to watch, something always new to watch. Have a wonderful day, great life. Cindi
one of my faves is washboarding on late afternoons and orientation flights.
I have yet to see the washboard dance of the bees. I would love to see it, maybe I will have this beautiful little glimpse into this part of the bees' life. The orientation flights are a work of wonder. It is very easy to see this and watch them, it makes me feel so good when I see these little bees doing their thing. Have a wonderful day, great life.
