Looked at the feeders again today. Have to fit checking on the hives into busy school days, but now I try to keep some breaks free to go to the hives. Pupils once again accompanied me like children the rat-catcher of Hamelin.
Moon was empty and Star running low. So I filled both up again. Bees were flying in and out, the incoming with pollen, but not a huge amount of activity. Most seems sluggish and cold. Quite a number of bees were on the floor, looking like they were freezing their stripes off.
Hope the weather improves soon.
More syrup in the offing.
