Bee Tourist

Hello to all my friends out there!  I don't know where u are in the world right now, but it might be hotter in Southern Arkansas than the equator!  Whew!  It is just peachy out there - speaking of which the peaches are in season and amazing all across the South.

This past Sunday Ben's Bees had the pleasure of giving a good friend a tour of the show.  Like any visitor we first had to properly equip our guest in the finest veils around town, nope these are not your typical wedding veils we wear around here - these are kiss proof ( aka sting proof as well haha).
From our visit of the bees we learned they are really making some headway filling up their home with lots of honeycomb filled with honey to my delight!


^ now if u look really closely you can see a top layer of white on the top of the frame. Those honey cells are called capped - white capped means they are full of honey and they have capped them off to seal them.
