Question for those who know about #honey. I guess that includes: #apiarist #beekeeping
I purchased this tub of honey yesterday and it's got a lot of dark brown particulates in it. I'm not sure what they are at all. Is this anything you might expect to find in honey?
It doesn't look like bits of honeycomb to me, but I could be wrong. It's commercial stuff that is usually processed to the edge of its life and very clear. It is possible its a very foreign contaminant.
I've already demanded a refund from woollies, would like to figure out if maybe its fine despite this stuff in it.

I've got another jar of this fresh super tasty mangrove honey from my #apiarist friend...
...I will be a better person this time and not give myself sugar shock eating all of it in one sitting with a spoon like a savage.

I've made a terrible mistake...
...I bought a jar of fresh Mangrove honey from a friendly #apiarist 🐝 last market
It's almost gone.
Eating it with a spoon like a savage. -

#Varroa mite detected in #SouthAustralia for first time!
The discovery was made in a #beehive at #Pooginook in the state's Riverland during routine surveillance by PIRSA inspectors.
The infested hive is believed to have originated in a consignment of hives from Queensland. #auspol #bees #apiarist

So there's this Greek myth that says Zeus was fed by bees when he was born. In gratitude, he blessed them with the color of "shining bronze", and made them immune to cold and harsh winds. These bees lived in Zeus' sacred cave in Crete, and aggressively chased away anyone who tried to steal their honey.
Any #apiarist or #entomology expert out there who could tell me what these bees are by any chance?...

Hi #beekeepers especially any in #Scotland. I came across a hive of wild bees in the Isle of #Bute. These were very dark, almost black. I have a vague memory that black bees are the native strain & quite rare. Is this right? My picture is not great but the best I could do. #apiary #apiarist

After years of the ritualistic cadences and PPE-less bee-scooping of Erika Thompson of Texas Beeworks (“and it was another great day of saving the bees”) I have discovered on YouTube an Australian #apiarist who is somewhere near #Geelong and who says stuff like “and they’ve got their bums up” and accidentally drops a queen he is trying to mark with a Posca for easy ID, and swears when #bees sting him
His videos are about inspecting his regular hives as opposed to bee removals from where they shouldn’t make hives, and he shows each frame he removes so it is interesting to learn what a healthy #beehive should be like

Foundation is getting more expensive. Try foundationless frames; save money and reduce miticide contamination in your hives.

NEW POST: The science of identity ... how guard bees recognise nestmates, why drifting bees are accepted into other hives and why robbers are only sometimes rejected.

Just hung a mirror to more easily see what’s going on in the far side of the #ObservationHive without having to move it. Not much action right now, all the activity currently is on the frames facing the front. #beekeeping #apiarist #beestodon

I love that everyone is basically wandering around Mastodon right now wearing their weirdest hashtags and trying to find their people.
"Are you #Apiarist ?"
"No, sorry, I'm #ArduinoMusic ."#ArduinoMusic turns around.
"ANYBODY INTO BEES?"
A hand goes up in the back of the crowd.
"NICE."

Hypothetical question because #writing #alternatehistory. If #bees vanished, how much impact would it make on #tea? Camellia sinensis is #pollinated by bees, right? So would need to be hand pollinated? #horticulture #apiarist #entomology #botany
