On the 5th, it was supposed to approach freezing, so we gave them about a pint or pint and a half of sugar water in the feeder.
I told one of my coworkers that we had fed the bees, and he got this weird look on his face. "How do you feed bees? I am picturing these little bitty steaks and potatoes!"
I said "that's it! That's how we do it!"
He said, "How do they cut it up?"
I said, "With a buzz saw!"
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
I kill myself!
Anyway, while watching the hive yesterday (the 6th), I GOT REWARDED!! I saw at least 5 forager bees come in with pollen on their legs! YAY!! I don't know that that is significant per se, but I do know that it impressed the heck out of me when I saw the Johnson's bees doing it back in January.
