hallo Freunde,
Da eure Situation gerade sehr schlecht ist für die Bienen wegen akuten Futtermangels, möchte ich euch mitteilen, was in Arizona los ist. Dee Lusby schreibt daß sie seit sehr, sehr langer Zeit kein so verschrobenes Jahr gesehen hat.
Sie bekam viele Telefonanrufe von Imkern aus ihrer Gegend die Honig zum füttern für ihre Bienen suchten, denn diese sind auf ihrer Linie und verwenden auch kein Kunstfutter. Was sie machen wird ist die Robin Hood Art. Honig von den starken Völkern zu den schwachen geben.
well, it’s finally been wet, but washing the blooms out so glad my bees are
fed and waiting hopefully for me to see if they finally got some
honey……………..but it’s been down in the high 60sF and lower 70sF at night
which is bad for hives not very big for keeping warm and keeping
vandals/pests out, so as I go thru the hives will for working up for going into fall
thru the lull sorta now in blooms with change from spring type plants to
more fall type plants coming on, will have to balance from the rich to the poor
again and hope all made it thru……………………Hope rest of you are doing okay……………..as have gotten many phone
calls from locals wanting to buy honey as their bees didn’t hardly get any
surplus for themselfes and are not also feeding which I will not do, but
balance between the strong and rich instead………….but haven’t turned
the AC on yet as still in 80sF or lower at night and no need to which is odd
year haven’t seen in long, long time.Hope rest of you all are doing okay.
Dee A Lusby
