It's always a good day when you catch a swarm, but to be able to watch the queen walk in.....that doesn't happen often. Here's the latest from Studio Bee productions. God's peace to all, and Happy Easter.

    I have to agree, that was cool stuff getting that footage. I've seen it before, but I never captured it on camera, it was truly a grace given. Pete, I have a buddy bee keeper in New York City that keeps bees on roof tops. His name is Tom Wilks, and he owns Wilks Apiary. He sells his honey as Zip Code honey as the hives are in different zip codes, a good idea he came up with to market his honey. So, if you want some really good honey, get in touch with Tom.

You do not need to have bees to belong to a club, just a love for them. You will meet some really great folks who can give you valuable information on keeping bee in the area you live and that is very important. Folks up north keep bees different from folks down south, food and climate have everything to do with it. Let me know how you progress goes. God's peace. Mr. Ed

    I was curious to find out when she landed on the box, so, as I was editing the video I kept backing the clip up till I first spotted her. In the video, it was 2:32 when I said "there she is," but in truth, she was already on the box at 2:08. She is the third bee from the top on the entrance board. It took me 24 seconds to finally see her. No wonder why i have trouble finding the queen in the hive. I need to get better. Always good to read your comments Pamela. Easter blessings. Mr. Ed

    More often than not we get to busy to truly pay attention to what queens really do all day. Some people think a queen just mates, goes in the box and lays eggs her whole life, I say not even close. I have a few hives that Ive seen the queen come out and leave then return and do it five times in a day, and those where just the times I caught one sneaking out her window. It does beg the question, what are we interfering with when we cut off one of her wings? Bees are complex, we've not even begun to understand them but more so just try to harness them with no success whatsoever.I just let them be bees, its cool to watch them.

    If you have a queen that likes to out for a little stroll, and a Marten or whatever spots her, your hive just lost their reason for living. If you have to clip a wing to make her stay home, do it. the workers are expendable, she is NOT. Eaven I know that much and I'm not eaven a bee keeper.

    the queen has to be reluctant to go in. she has to smell the entrance very well to see if another queen is inside because she will die very quickly if another queen is inside. Just because the jeff knows no other queen is inside, does not translate to your future genetics living and being passed on if you don't know for sure. I understand completely mr Ed. She has to be sure then her genes will be passed on because she made sure. When looking for the queen on first entry look for the waggling rear. I saw it right away when she landed. This waving of the abdomen has something to do with preparing the egg laying machine to function correctly for first egg laying. None of this is easy.
