Well the snow arrived, wow has it arrived, this is day three, I've had to clear the entrance to the hive each morning, well I say I have had to, but to be honest not sure if I should! The first morning I tunnelled in, a bee flew out straight past me, I wonder did she ever find her way back? Each day there has been bees coming just outside the entrance, not flying, think they are carrying out the dead bees and rubbish. I'm hoping that the latest entrance will remain clear, but must watch closely because what kills bees is being damp and wet in hive, I have left snow on to insulate like an igloo, but as soon as thaw starts will need to clear away quick to avoid melt water in hive.
