>And how are the bees doing? Has anyone checked on the bees?

Generally speaking you want to wait for days when it is in the 50sF before you check your bees this time of year. I am hearing in some places because it’s been a mild winter people are starting to check… I think my last hive was a dead out. For many northern beekeepers it will be April before we start new hives of any kind

My hives just survived 8°F, and a week below freezing. I was happy to see scouts exploring, two days ago... but I imagine I'll be shuffling frames around here again before not-too-long (to make each healthier).

Four years ago I lost three hives (of four, total).
