First harvest of the year

Its now practically a year since we started our "little" hobby.. how we've grown!!

The warm weather brought the rape on 3 weeks early and the spring blossom has been amazing.  So much so that we took 2 x full supers off both the Buckfast and Harmony 2 (carnis).  57lb we spun off in total and there is still more on the way!!!  Thank you Mother Nature for your lovely warm weather and blossom. 



2 weeks ago I mentioned that we had gained not one but 2 new Carni queens.  We decided to leave them alone after the initial inspection, let them make themselves at home.  Saturday is the next time we check them... so until then.
