If not, I found some websites I will contact them tomorrow.I saw this nest in the corner of my bedroom window. First I thought it was a wasp nest because I saw one near it. But I think it was more a hornet due to the size, and a few seconds after I saw a bee entering the nest. But I only have experience from my birth country in 🇫🇷 (my dad was an amateur beekeeper) regarding these species. I’m more inclined to believe that it’s a <a href="https://piaille.fr/tags/bees" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#bees</a> nest, but looking at pictures online bees and wasps nests can be very similar.

I have an old hive in my garden, it was empty the last year. The last bees decided to leave in autumn two years ago. Recently some <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/scoutbees" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#scoutbees</a> came, checking the hive out. Swarm came, but left again. I checked the box and found a tiny <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/waspnest" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#waspnest</a> attached to the lid. With apologies I removed the still empty nest. Two days later the bees are back and moving in.

tickfootFellow <a href="https://regenerate.social/tags/beekeepers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#beekeepers</a> I am encountering a situation I haven't run into before (third year keeper) and am interested in hearing thoughts from seasoned keepers...In 2 of our hives and one young but strong split I have no brood, very little pollen stores, and mostly all nectar or capped honey. ~ 2 weeks ago saw 1+ day old and capped brood.We got a late frost about 2 weeks ago which knocked off a lot of blooms on surrounding flora. Daytime weather has generally been hotter and drier than usual the last couple of weeks. Could this brood break be a natural response to potentially low pollen availability? I am not convinced yet that we're queenless in 3 hives. My strongest hive is far too aggressive right now (chasing us for 1/4 mile...) to go frame by frame - so it may be without a queen. There's a lot more detail I could go into but I'll end it here for now.TIA<a href="https://regenerate.social/tags/beekeeper" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#beekeeper</a> <a href="https://regenerate.social/tags/beekeeping" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#beekeeping</a> <a href="https://regenerate.social/tags/honeybee" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#honeybee</a>

AI6YR BenRandom <a href="https://m.ai6yr.org/tags/beekeeper" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#beekeeper</a> comment: painting bee boxes with whatever random interior latex paint you get for free works fine. Light colors are better in Southern California (due to heatwaves/sun). We haven't had any issues at all with using that paint exposed outdoors in all kinds of sun and rain/etc.

𝑩𝒓𝒊𝒂𝒏 𝑯𝒂𝒓𝒑𝒆𝒓Here are some pictures Melissa shot during the install. The 1st is me preparing the hive and package for install. The 2nd I'm inspecting the queen to make sure she and her attendants were ok. The 3rd shot is me shaking the bees like they owe me money into the brood box. I'm glad it's done but wish the remaining ones in the package would walk in there faster.Have a wonderful afternoon friends!

𝑩𝒓𝒊𝒂𝒏 𝑯𝒂𝒓𝒑𝒆𝒓Question for the beekeepers out there. I'm starting a hive at the end of March and one in early April. There isn't a heavy pollen or nectar flow in my area yet. We are planning supplemental feeding starting out but I'm also thinking of adding a pollen substitute to encourage brood rearing. The supplements/feeding will stop once things are in bloom here. I've found these three, does anyone have any experience with them?
