Beekeeping birthday


It's Saint Ambrose Day!  Patron saint of Beekeepers and bees!

It is also, coincidentally,  the birthday of yours truly.  Sliding one year closer to 40 but we still have a couple of years to go.  It's been a great day.

Here are some beekeeping pictures to share.


Dad and I working hives, 2007?


Straining and bottling the first honey harvest.


First honey harvest. 2008?


Hives in the chicken yard.

Uncapping frames.


Spinning.


It's fun to answer swam calls in the summer. Every one is different. 


A swarm in the air.
