Our Bees are loving this hot weather!

We've been beekeeping for 3 years now and this year we have the most bees so far from over the years! It is so nice to water the garden and smell the honey! They are friendly bees also, small also black. We think they may have swarmed once though as it is not as big of a hive as it was at the beginning of the nice weather. No problem however as there seems to be a ton left! We have not taken any honey so far since the end of last year as we wanted the hive to survive and stay strong over the winter. We will probably take out a few frames at the end of the summer again, enough for us and our relatives, sure makes nice Christmas gifts! Here are a few photos of them this last month! :-()

That sounds lovely :D

I wish keeping bees was an option on my zoned residential property....
