One of our colonies is under attack by wasps.

A trick to help the bees is to reduce the entrance with grass. Narrow entrance, easier the defence. 🥷

Yesterday I had the unusual experience to move a family of white-tailed bumblebees that nested underneath the decking.
Definitely not my area, I hope it worked and they will thrive for the rest of the season.

Thanks to the owners that asked around instead of killing them.

⚠️⚠️⚠️ We are sorry to announce that *all* our bees have drowned in the recent Bedfordshire flood. The unprecedented water level reached the hive roofs and left the bees helpless, despite being placed on raised blocks.

It has been hard work to keep our colonies healthy and well-prepared for the winter. Sadly in vain.

At the moment we don't know if we'll be able to recover part of the equipment or start again next year in a more elevated spot.
