We’re having a cold snap here in Missouri. Went out to check the hives and found a dead-out. So sad, looks like they froze to death because they were too weak to keep themselves warm. Despite treating for mites and vigilant monitoring, I suspect the invaders won. Will be ordering a nuc come February to replace this lost colony. I’ll keep you posted.

Meanwhile, work on ‘Irreplaceable’ is buzzing along, pun intended.
