Could not think of a clever title for today's post....Very hot day in Charlotte today. Returned home tonight from my busy week, left Charlotte at 5am on Monday and went to Raleigh and then Cinn. Ohio. While in Ohio, had the chance to have dinner with Stew Atkinson (Tom's Older brother). Nice to see him - he and Tom are amuzed at the beekeeping hobby.
Refilled the door feeder tonight and filled the bird bath and dog pool with water. On a hot day like today, the hive will consume approximately a liter of water. In addition to drinking the water, they fan water over the hive to cool themselves inside the hive (to learn more, read the post about the gift from Doug).
When I went to pull the feeder, I was amazed at all of the beesoutside the hive door (today's picture).
