I am visiting and I saw a bee on a silver maple. Aspen and I believe a hackberry were also in bloom. Hoping to find my bees getting real pollen 250 miles northwest when I get home.
59405 Great Falls Montana. Dandelions in the valley in full bloom and neighbors pear tree is in full bloom. Ornemental purple leaf plum blooming. A yellow shrub I do not know blooming. Wild plums blooming. Green Ash blooming.
Great Falls Mt 47-62 latitude 59405 Dandelions are everywhere, all fruit now blooming, caragana starting. My bees are no longer in need of welfare. They have quit taking syrup without lemongrass oil. I helped a guy 80 miles south hive his packages and split an overwintered hive. It had 14 frames of brood with queen cells on 8 of them.
59405 Great Falls Mt. Finally alfalfa is starting--the main flow! Yellow clover is a week or so in but I have very little of it in my radius/s Still cold and wet. Now we need some heat. I put out buckerts of 1:1 because it is too cool for anything to flow.
