The girls are busy working up a storm this morning.It was very cool last few days and some rain,today I was picking a few off the hive entrance because they were stuck because of the moisture on the board and it was about 46 or 47 degrees .Got them warmed up and off they went,noticed about ten bee`s walking with about half of their wings missing.As of noon they were packing pollen in like...well like they are getting ready for winter.Ijust hope they make it through the winter.
