After hurricane Irene, which left this area unscathed, the bees have been in a frenzy building new comb. Six so far in the second box. They need to complete the box by autumn to survive the winter. Here's hoping.
On another note, I wrote to 2 experts on autism and asked if anyone was studying the correlation of neurotoxic pesticides and the sudden increase in autism since the introduction of this pesticide. One has replied as a no, and I haven't heard from the second at UND. Maybe now that's school has begun, I might get a response, who knows, can't hurt and I can wait.
Fall is upon us soon and the dogs are getting anxious to hit the fields for birds, bee keeping will go on hold at that time I guess. Have a Meetup with local bee keepers at the end of the month at my house, good to meet new people, but at my age, everyone is a new person . Later.
