  1. I put the oxalic acid pads in the hives today. Each hive gets 50 grams of oxalic acid that is mixed with 50 grams of glycerin. The glycerin is heated to LESS than 170F/76C before the oxalic acid is mixed in and then the Swedish dishcloths are cut in half and soaked in the mixture.

    This was the Center hive that has the most bees.

    No stings, no drama, no surprises.

  3. There's a lot of pollen going into the hives today. Seems to be yellow and that cream or buff colored cedar/arborvitae pollen. I currently have violas/violets on the ground blooming but they're not busy there but It seems there's yellow pollen flowers somewhere that are big enough to cover a bee with pollen.

  5. The oldest chicken arrived here 11 years ago today. I think she might be the chick on the left, her eyes/pupils have always been a bit different.

  7. No crocus blooms, a new tulip is up which is one of the freebies from the bulb order, and one of the smallest pots has a daffodil showing.

  9. Potted up the California Wonder bell peppers and a couple of Jalapenos that have been lingering in their small pot. 5 as planned into the tall square 3.5 inch pots and normal potting mix and 3 plus the 2 into gallon pots of old potting mix with rock phosphate and slow release high nitrogen fertilizer.

  11. Where the magic happens and a closeup of the material used. This is a single fold swing-away binder for 1 inch binding.

    Finished the second bag and fixed a hole in the bag used for a pattern too.

  13. Making two feed bags for horses. Mostly a copy of one that is liked. Had to make a little tuck because... don't add your seam allowance to the circumference. The thing was my circle probably would have been ok but I didn't want too much extra so I cut inside the line. It's a re-purposed shade sail sort of thing which works too good as a sail if the wind blows even a little. The bottom is pvc coated heavy screen. My sister-in-law has horses. 🐴

  15. The other day when I finally got around to cleaning the computer out, and literally the cobwebs, I wondered to myself wtf spider is the one that always makes webs inside the case and is never seen. I think I might have found the subject. I just saw it crawling along but after taking the photos I noticed there was a random array of the fine webs on another loop of cable above this that look like what was inside.

  17. Just when I think I'm going to get something done I see a good video making opportunity. 4 seconds of 240fps bees slowed down.

  19. The geraniums are greening up slowly after being under the lights for a week. I've turned the lights down some since the lettuce seemed to be suffering as it got taller. The grape cutting from last year that had a verbena I saved in it is growing fast! The saved Red Marconi isn't doing much but I haven't fertilized or pruned it either. Extra details in ALT about tent and LED lights.

  21. The Red Marconi and Jalapeno peppers, or chilies, are getting their first true leaves. The California Wonder 300 are all up 100% from last years bought seed, 100% dud on saved seeds. I'll have to make sure to grow one of them well into a non green color for seeds.

  23. The local deer that's been around a year or two in the winter and spring. It acts different and is always ... by itself. 🤣 It loves the Euonymus bushes. I always thought the long tips just had some winter kill until I realized something was eating the leaves.

  25. Playing around with an old Canon S2 IS camera. 20 years old this year. Stock settings here so not the highest image quality setting.

  27. One of the two new roosters from last years hatch. He was overseeing, or just lurking on the youngest hen that is a bit wild. It is a Swedish Flower Hen, as are all but one of the 19 chickens here.

  29. Some of the replanted California Wonder 300 peppers have sprouted. It looks like it's last years seeds so what I saved must be duds. Probably should have did a germination test on everything. Everything else is doing good.

  31. Crows in the cottonwood tree this afternoon.

    It's a video with a still image with audio from a shaky video.

  33. Barely warm enough for the bees to be out but they've found some pink and cream colored pollen somewhere show here in the video. I also saw some sorta bright red pollen too.

    The video is half speed.

  35. Beehives are like chickens, they keep multiplying. This was actually cheaper than the previous 3 hives. First one I got was a Bee Castle then I got 2 non-branded ones that are the same exact parts, and now another Bee Castle. Like the first bee castle this one has stinky deep foundation but not as bad even though those have been sitting around for 2 years now. I was expecting that and will get more Acorn foundation if needed.

  37. Put a feeder on my Center hive yesterday with 2:1 syrup. Less than 20 hours and more than a third appears to be gone. This was the high population hive that felt light. Consecutive rainy days forecast and not much to forage on.

  38. Been getting 6 eggs every two days reliably for a week now. 5 or more today if the chicken lurking in the coop wasn't just staying out of the wind.
