(For those of you who don't know, I have a 7 year-old son that has always been into bees. I'm pretty sure "bee" was the first word he learned how to say. I have been taking him out to my apiaries since he could barely walk. Now all of a sudden he really wants to help and be more than just the "smoker kid".)
Spent the last few days working bees with Davis, I figure in another decade or so he'll be able to take over this menagerie I'm creating. He has totally stepped it up with the bees. Last week Davis was giving the tours to the guests who came to visit the trailer at the Napa Valley Museum. He told me he wants to teach them everything he knows about bees. I'm blown at how accurate he is. Check him out:
Assessing the bees in the observation hive before his lecture. Will ya' look at that cluster? Massive!
Looking for the queen.
Pulling frames at Hesta Farm.
Looking for day old eggs.
Really focused on finding that queen.
There she is! He was pissed when he saw she was marked, "That's not fair"!
(I'll explain why I'm marking queens later.)
Davis, a frame of bees, and our new bee-dub at Andy Erickson & Annie Favia's place.
Getting down on it!
A few Davis took of me:
These bees are bumpin'.
Writing up records, a necessity!
