PNW folks-check your hives.

[Kathyp]

we are having some unusually warm weather and the bees are flying.  that means they are using stores.  in addition, i just walked my property and the pollen is starting to pop on some of the trees.  the bees are bringing it in and that means brood rearing.  make sure that your hives still have plenty of stores.  we will yet have cold weather, but this is the danger time for losing hives.  a couple of years ago, i almost lost all of mine under the same conditions.

When it stop's raining I will take a look.

Yes, I plan on doing this very thing the next warm day.

irwin, you are getting it!  not quite as bad as the folks down south.

almost all of it has missed me for a change.

Been very dry up in Washington and I had to put on pollen patties to keep them going now because natural pollen is coming out.
