New Year 2014

It's 2nd Januaray 2014.  It seems to have been raining for days, but today is bright and sunny.  Only about 7 degrees, but there are a suprising number of bees out and about.  I gave them a small lump of christmas cake which they seem to love.



I would have done a varroa count, but the board has blown out of the back of the hive, so I cleaned it and replaced it and will count later.
