I live in Sweden, last summer was our hottest on record, we always put saucers of water out for the hedgehogs and birds, but we noticed one (under an apple tree) was emptying multiple times a day, so we set up a little hide and watched and it was these beautiful little honey bee's, no-one round here has a hive so I'm convinced it was a wild hive, but they found our little saucer and were coming and going all day long for days on end, it was like aircraft control, 9 would come in, land, have a drink and takeoff, then the next 9 would come and do the same. This went on for weeks.
Kinda silly really but we got such a kick seeing them every day, they never gave us any bother and my kids were all so thrilled that we'd been able to help the ladies.
Training video's are a must , a lot of people like myself are keen to get into backyard bees but don't know enough about them. SO BRING IT ON.

Mark, beginners aka: noo-bees, often ask what is the difference between the different types (material used) boxes, what is the best and also what is best for them for a first hive? The only thing I tell them is to buy the best suit possible, to avoid the ouch. I have only 24 hives, and most from recent swarms. Still on a very big learning curve and making mistakes every day. With your multitude of box types, what do you consider the pros & cons?
As a newbie we would be very interested in your down to earth lessons for beginners.

Very good video, thank you. Way too many of the other 'beginners' video's are too busy yelling at you or telling you what you need to look for but don't SHOW YOU what you are looking for like yours does. WIl be watching more of your vids.

@@TheBushBeeMan Awesome. Thank you.
Yes. I would like to do the training.
We here in Washington. State have been watching since #4 video
Now you need a battery bee vacuum. On episode #101 at the park when you caught the Queen you would use the vac to pick up the flyers on the outside of it the tree and your off M8.
Yes a video training series sounds great

You've got my subscription. Thumbs up for the educational vids. Especially with a focus on bee keeping in Australia. Im in W.A.
Cheers! Welcome aboard!
The ZEST hive has proven itself to be functionally free of Varroa.
The probable cause is that the ZEST is a naturally humid and consistently warm environment.
Varroa do not thrive in a humid environment. The ZEST hive is up to 20% more humid.
Varroa also does not like a shortened bee pupation period caused by the 39 times better insulation than a conventional thin walled wood hive, which gives the varroa less time to mature in the cells. The bee pupation time is up to 3 days shorter in a ZEST due to its high insulation
I'll 🐝 back laters
I have a couple of flow frame hives as well as traditional. I started with the flow frames, and they’re good for beginners with backyard access - for shits and giggles. But they’re way too expensive to have a giggle when you have several hives, particularly when your flow frames candy up or fuck up in some way. Traditional or flow, it depends on where you are and your commitment to large scale bee keeping. Love your vids!
💝
"Maybe im a bit endearing or completely insane im not really sure!" Both. It's both XD lol
Use a. Poultry watered with some stones in the rim for a watered, works great!
Great episode. Looking forward to the next 100 (or more). Good to to see you working a backyard hive. LMAO.
.
i look forward to your videos and i have found them useful for some different ideas i have been a bee keeper for many years and you're right about noticing nature i see plants flowering now that i never gave a second glance to before. The first thing i think when i see flowering plants especially lots of them i wonder how much nectar they make, if any. keep up the good work

4 Hectares in Central Cali. My Bee's are still trying to find out Fall Vs Spring like Birds. I don't use Smoke.
Oh Ya...the smoker is a PITA... It works fine until you need it. :O this was a very good explanation for newbys.. Well done :) thanks for the video.. :) Contrats on 100 episodes..
omg this video is hilarious!!!! i love it
im definitely up for the training videos
Awesome!
When looking for Queen cells what do they look like vs normal looking? What do you do when you find queen cells?
Queen Cells are like drawn down "Peanuts"in their Husk Shells.
Either keep them (Remove the Queen with some bees and make a Split. Or...
Cut them out with a clear boundary of Wax, and place it in between two Frames, in a Hopelessly Queenless Colony. (Aka, one where they have no Queen, one that has Swarmed and raised a dud Queen : not mated properly so poor egg laying... A failing Hive.)
Or add it to a few Frames of Bees, and build it up a a little Hive to Sell for £££$$$€€€ as Nuc Colony (a Half Hive, eg Langstroth x5 Frames, to that of a Brood Box which is x10 Frames.)
Hope this helps. 🤗
Happy Beekeeping 2021.
🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝
Thanks Mark. It looks like you have quite a bit of messy burr and cross comb in the brood box. How do you find those Paradise boxes in relation to frame spacing and bee space?
best saying ever;; Hello chicky babes
:)
You did crush quite a few bees when u replaced the honey super.
Hate to say but the bees don't get more friendly without genetic changes, they have no clue who we are and for the most part they don't care what we do as long as we are not doing it to them. But we sure do like to humanize our girls don't we? I keep 2 hives in my backyard that are about 60,000 bees in each. Spring and summer they are great neighbors but in the fall they get a little bit pissy when I mess with them or mow the grass near them. How do I place a pre-order for a hive tool and a hat? I would like to see training videos. I have one suggestion, bring in a person or two from your area or family (the wife?) that has never kept bees and mentor him/her in the process of making the videos. Not only will you get feedback from us fans but would have immediate feedback from the students and get some impromptu questions to answer. I find it's easier to teach someone and film it than to create a training syllabus and convert that into a free flowing DIY video. I really get a kick out of your docudramas with girls and your son is doing a great job behind (and occasionally in) the scenes work. How do I place a pre-order for a hive tool (I am the one that made the suggestion for the logo on the hive tool) and a hat?
terrific' so entertaining as always
Training videos would be awesome!

What I was waiting for!
I would love to be included on any kind of training you could share. Thanks!!
