Allot of confusion online about Asian hornets. The one we have invading the UK is second from left ‘yellow legged Asian hornet’ to the left of it is a common wasp, to the right our native hornet and the big one in centre is the giant Asian hornet which is not found in Europe.
Yesterday at 2pm the first honeybee (Apis mellifera) in this species’ evolutionary history managed to pull a string for reward. They are much harder to train than bumblebees, though!
And if ‘Graze’ is busy please try Kaldi or one of the other catering outlets - or Saturday lunchtime’s hog-roast! Really looking forward to enjoying @HACatering again! Such a treat! #bees #beekeeping #Beepartofit
Happy National Dandelion Day! Always a relief for beekeepers to see a great big field of these emerge as they provide a critical source of spring food for the bees (and a huge range of other insects). Don’t mow them, Daddy-o! (Pic of one of our apiaries this morning)
Today is National Dandelion Day. Great early forage source for honey bees and other pollinators. Please leave them when flowering and avoid using herbicides which can poison bees. Video: Diane Drinkwater
