Click on this link to see the first video clips of bees working inside a hive at the Pine Tree Apiary! This is a first for the PBKA and Scolton Manor and has been funded with grants from Environment Wales and the Prince’s Countryside Fund.

Given the relatively cool weather we are having at the moment which is limiting foraging activity and the increasing size of our colonies, lack of stores is a serious threat. It is advised therefore, that you check your colonies for stores and feed if required. Do not assume however, that you can gauge the level of stores simply by hefting alone, as the increased brood also adds significant weight to the hive. Better safe than sorry!
