A very old bee

Spotted on the wall of St Peter's church at the Vatican, I wonder why somebody chose to make this all those years ago?

Back in Whyteleafe the bees were tucking themselves in for the winter and then we get a nice warm day and the promise of 18 deg tomorrow.

Tomorrow will drop the second Apiguard into the hive and after talking with fellow bee keepers will drop the crown board below the super and let them spend the winter in just the brood box which is how it should always be. Easy to get this beekeeping thing a bit confused at times, will probably change my mind again by morning! :-)
