Busy two weeks!

We put feed on the Salomium and Benedictium two Sundays ago.

Eight days ago, on Saturday, we caught a swarm. The 14-year-old apiarella, as usual, spotted it, and we put it in a green hive and christened it the Josephium. We moved the feeder pail from the Salomium to the new Josephium; it still had a bit of feed in it.

Then on Thursday, the 11-year-old apiariulus spotted another one! We put this one into a hive, also green, and christened it the Helenium. We put a fresh pail of feed on it.

Yesterday I put new pails on the Josephium and the Benedictium.

No stings for a change!
