This was the first of my hives two years ago which has now grown to six.

What a difference it makes when the bees are busy. Not a one came near me while this shot was taken.
Way to go Geoff. Yours is the same size as mine although I have fulls. I agree its amazing how they kick on!
Good photo Jeff.When we had our family picnic in October many were surprised how close you could get to the bees without any bother!
