Just caught some of this 50min movie on Hulu for free:
Living for the Queen (http://www.hulu.com/embed/zMyaqi3YWQhPuz2A8B_5gw)
Might have been older show but not sure of release date. In anycase gets up close w/ the bees & hope all can enjoy.
Cheers, David in wetter southern California
Great close up shots.
Awesome photography...thanks!
Scott
I really enjoyed this video. You can really see up close the working of the hive. Just awesome photography as Scott said.
Thank you so much for sharing this

Your welcome all, great to watch while these rains coming down. Just watched all the way through & amazed at the exacting filmography of the drone & queen mating. If anyone finds a video on how they got these shots would be great watching as well. Was hoping they would have some video of the making of the comb & thermographic camera shots of heater bee action but have to wait for nother video to cover those :).
Cheers, David
Man, I love the bee house. I want one. :-D

Hi Annette,
My link works on my end but try Jay's as well.
Thanks Jay for providing as well. I'm watching again tonight as its mezmerizing & yes that bee house is cool. Like the slide in out frames from backside. Is that Turkish or Eastern european configuration?
Hmmm. I just copied the address to the message, didn't embed it at all and now it is an embedded video. How dey do dat? :-D
I am not sure where they are at, but I think you are close. I love this website for Eastern European beekeeping. http://www.thehoneygatherers.com/html/photolibrary15.html (http://www.thehoneygatherers.com/html/photolibrary15.html)
Half of my personal genetics are Bohemian, so this really resonates well with me. Maybe this is how I will spend my retirement, migrating with my bees. ;)

Great video!
Informative!
I did observe a Varroa mite on the 2nd worker bee to the right of the queen at 26:42.
It's very noticeable just below the bees left wing and down a small amount.
