Today is the day we pick up the bees. I am pretty excited. I wasn’t so much yesterday, but now that the day is here I can’t wait to get my new little fuzzy friends in their new home. My partner in crime and I keep the bees on her two acre property out in the country, so I am more like the parent who gets weekend visitation privileges. I feel like I am missing out on a lot, so I keep going back and forth on whether or not I want a bee box at my house. I live in the suburbs, and you have seen my backyard… it’s not that big. My neighbors are all for me keeping bees, so that’s not the issue. I was thinking what I can do is set up the bee box, and leave it empty for any swarms that happen to wonder by looking for a home. If a swarm finds it great, if not, I will have a cute looking bee box in my yard. Win win.
