The Arrival of the Bees!

After the warm 80 degree days of mid March, an emergency call was made to bring the bees up from their Florida winter residence early. They arrived at 7:30PM on March 28th, a cold 33 degree evening. John and the crew unloaded the bees without one sting! Very happy about that, however it has taken nearly a week for them to make any kind of movement due to the cold weather that followed their arrival. I guess we can’t blame them though… anyone would experience some shock after leaving warm Florida to cold Michigan. Hoping for the warmer days to continue and the bee movement to increase!
