Tenacious Wee Bees

Tenacious Wee Bees Surplus may be for sale!

While our beekeeping antics have become a fascinating hobby for us, the by-product is beautiful, natural, liquid gold runny honey made by our fabulous wee bees who forage around the Clarkston, East Renfrewshire area.

This wee one got lost at the back of the hive. Found her and put her at the entrance where she waddled on in 😊

We found and marked one of our last year's queens 👑. Here she is casually strolling back into the hive. (2025 queens should of course be marked blue. Not purple. But someone lost the blue pen 😏)

First inspections this weekend! It feels as if it's been a long, long winter but the weather is finally warming up and we're good to go for inspections this weekend. Until then, here's one of the stragglers coming home with some late pollen this evening 🙂

The girls flying in the sun. You can see the pollen on the girls' legs being taken into the hive. And you can also see an undertaker bee at work, removing the body of a wee expired bee 😳😁

The girls have been making the most of the lovely weather this weekend. We've spotted them on heather and viburnum (although they're likely taking advantage of crocus as well). The pollen is vital for the new brood they are raising. So if you have them in your garden, thank you ! 😄

Another kind compliment for the hard workingTenacious wee bees .... Good afternoon.
I have just tried some of your honey (Beatrice) courtesy of Andy.
It is absolutely delicious.
Could I possibly be added to your list of customers, if there is any honey available for purchase later in the year.Thank you, Kenny
