At last we have had a warm enough day for the bees to really get out and about. It gave me the chance to begin the grim process of assessing my winter losses. On the allotment site there was one hive that showed no activity and on inspection was found to have failed. At Poswick there was also a failure and in Suffolk one of the three there had also failed.
I checked 28 hives today and out of those I have definitely lost three colonies.
