  1. My mom said she saw a big bird land in the yard this morning, it was a goose and it wandered off over by my house. Funny looking goose.

  2. The first scout bee observed at the bait hive. 15:53 local daylight time, 60F/15C, sunny, light breeze.

    It was the only bee from 13:30 - 16:30. Weather is turning warmer so maybe there will be more activity in the coming week.

  3. All of the tomatoes were potted up and the bigger cabbage.

    8 Amish paste
    5 Cherry "Sweetie"
    6 San Marzano
    8 "Campari" (saved hybrid seeds)
    4+5 Primo Vantage Cabbage potted up + not.

    Full tray of Maximilian sunflowers set outside with the verbena. Both which need to be planted.

    Petunia colors so far, hot pink and just pink.

  4. A 4 foot wide raised bed is a lot bigger than the 3 foot ones. I got the two pepper beds finished. They are each 8 feet long. Just need to open up the poly sheeting and and dig a bit of the good dirt out so it's flat or dished and then stack some sticks in the bottom, or cardboard, or both.

    I planted a couple of lettuce stumps too that were regrowing in the lower right bed, and put some stakes next to some peas.

  5. I rescued a bumble bee that was stuck in the chicken coop. Looks like a Western Bumble Bee, Bombus occidentalis. I also saw 4 or maybe 5 Ashy Digger bees in one clove currant bush. I'm not sure I ever saw more than one at once last year.

  10. I'm seeing some honey bees on the hyacinths today. Not sure this is one of my bees, it looks a little different to what I see at the hives. One I saw yesterday getting goose water looked similar and behaved a little hotter than my bees. Lots of movement, maybe bee hand waving. 👋 Maybe Italians? 🤔
