Clear skys

The sun was out this afternoon and the feeling that spring was not far away and that winter will soon be over did not seem unreasonable.

The bees in GW's old box (No 6) decided it was time to fly and were taking in pollen.

I Postwick I think seven out of the ten hives there may pull through.

New sites

Sunny afternoon but winds still coming from a cold direction and only one or two hardy bees were flying in the allotment. I'm creating some new sites for hives in the allotment nearer to the hedge and away from the allotment next door.

The aconites and snowdrops are now also waiting for a warm sunny day and a visit from the bees.
