We found the local watering hole.

Busy busy bees

bees observed at 9o'clock collecting pollen. they seem to be coming and going more quickly than yesterday.

The first morning

At around 7:00 the sun was just starting to hit the yard and the temp was around 11 - 12 degrees. There were a few bees coming and going. They seemed to be the clean up crew as I saw a few bodies being carried away.

The first evening

at about 7:30PM, seven dead bees observed on the ground around the hive.

4:45PM many many bees observed entering the hive wearing fat bright yellow pollen-pants.
woo hoo!
i think they like their new place.
