As I was out working again today and didn't see my bees yesterday I was glad to see some action shortly before 20h00. Temperatures were still above 20°C, in the evening and there was still some activity near the hive.
Here is some footage of what I saw near the hives, oh I think I forgot to mention in my previous post from tuesday, I turned the entrance reducer over again. Since there are a lot of bees dead in front of the hive I don't want them to get robbed out. Of course I'm not sure if my hive is 'weak' compared to others in the area, but rather be safe than sorry:
I'll try to read up on the (dis)advantages of entrance sizes.
I also started watering the plants and found a dead bee in a flower. I wonder what happened. This is the second time I see bees dead in a way that makes me think my environment is polluted and poisoned:
Have any thoughts or knowledge that can help me out?! Don't hesitate to contact me!!
