- Honey Bee entertainment with audio recorded within inches of the bees at their various entrances.
Surround yourself with audio just as if sitting on the landing board of a hive.
Head phone wearers be warned that some people instinctively slap their headset.
All of these sequences were recorded on March 5th.
Dusted honey bees that appear white, have pollen substitute on them. Most of the foragers are finding real/natural pollen and nectar.
Love seeing the ones coming in wearing their pollen pants.🐝🌸
Me too :)
Got to see a lot of that today removing my hive wraps. Best wishes to all beekeepers 2024. Charlotte NC
Really envious of you guys. Have seen a few of you cousins across the pond have bees flying and collecting.
Here theyve hardly had any flight time, weather been miserable, like i know its the UK but come on warmth lol
One of the most cutest important intelligent animal ever 🌺 🐝 🍯 🧡
The close action is awesome...The slow-motion just amazzzes me! The continued cleaning of the antennae to keep the senses flowing in, is cool for sure. What we can see if we just slow down!
I'm the 99th like, I have 100% successful overwinter of 43/43 colonies. 100% it's about mite controll, having young queens and plenty of healthy winter bees. I practice the OTS principles of replacing queens every year. Modified OTS, I should say. I don't requeen for swarming, I requeen to have young queens post soltice, and young queens into the next Spring. It's all about the effort you put in!! God bless, and I don't have shame for the self plug of my YT channel! 🎉❤❤❤❤
Thanks for sharing all you do, and the success you're having. Wishing you all the best in beekeeping. :)
Very cool Fred I just made a great discovery because of your video. I watched for 5 to 10 minutes I didn't see any waggle dancing flight controllers telling the foragers where to fly. It seems they might have been scribbling down cryptic maps on the landing board. They walk out sniffing, feeling and staring at the landing board before taking off. I'm going to run out this week and put canopies over my landing boards so the signals dont wash off! I'm also going to get rid of the short commercial landing board and get something that sticks out a few more inches so they have more runway to draw the maps outside the hive. What a great discovery this totally changes everything. Thanks for your work. We make a great team!🎉 It also explains why they go out the top vent instead of my short bottom board. It also makes good advice not to flip your inner cover too often then and erase their hard work. We might get a Nobel for this. Also probably better to have a nice firm partial section of landing board inside instead of a full screen bottom board so they can lay down tracks. I'm going to append mine now. Holy cow this discovery really opens the world! Thank you thank you so glad to work with you. Go ahead and write it up and publish it please thank you. 50/50 40/60 30/70 somewhere in between, the discovery wouldn't have happened without your passion and hard work.
PS we can just do the announcement on the initial discovery with a limited abstract and discussion, referencing your video. Think of all the follow on subject research someone can do. I bet in the not too distant future less than a year or two people will be able to reliably mimic and deposit their track mappings on the landing board mechanically or bionically and thus lead them immediately to precise test feed locations in the yard. Holy cow this is going to be amazing fodder for beekeepers both amateur and commercial alike.😢😮😊. P.s. I think I'll smear some radiants with dead bees this week and see what happens. I hope I don't send them on a wild goose chase too far to return. Maybe whatever the extension of the landing board is correlates to 3 miles, so a half inch scent or washboard belly scribble or shine job on a 3" extension would mean there's nectar half a mile away. I wonder what units they think in terms of, metric, imperial, or something wholly undiscovered that's unique, evolutionary, and natural to them. Someone ought to hook up the Neuralink someday.
Holy cow I can't get over this revelation. This totally makes sense now I just keep watching the video they're all following trail scents before taking off, and sometimes laying scents when they come back. The washboarding is probably when they need to wipe the map clean periodically when the location dries out, and other reasons.
So much better than the commentary rabbit hole I just crawled out of, thank you Fred!!!
commentary rabbit hole? (';')( ';')...
@@FrederickDunn ... something that has no place in something fun like beekeeping
Awesome!!! Thanks!! 😊
Colene
You're welcome!!
They are the cutest little bug ❤
True marvels :) Fun to see them so close.
Wonderful Fred! ❤❤
so clear!!!!! wow uncle fred you did get us close the noises are differnt thansk!!!!!!
Thank you so much!
Beautiful
Awesome the best i have seen.
Thank you! :)
Great video Fred!!! Nobody does the closeups like you!!! And the audio was a great workout for the sub-woofer!!! 😄
Hi Keith! I'm fiddling with audio gear this year along with close focus work. It's going to be fun and possibly rewarding! :)
*Excellent footage, Fred. I do this sometimes and watch for mites. You can se them easily like this. Your video is much better then mine, of course. I can watch this all day!*
Thank you so much, I relly appreciate it :)
WOW! 👍🏾🖐🏽
at 25:45 that girl is carrying equivalent to her own weight in those pollen saddlebags ! 😲-🏋♀-🤣-💖
💫✨🌻♥️ Oh, Sacred Pleiadian Bees♥️of Gaia🌻✨💫Humanity is so GRATEFUL TO YOU💫🌻♥️✨You just healed my anxiety attack🌻✨💫
i think it gave me anxiety when it climed on screen!!!!!
Beautiful
Amazing video!
Thank you so much :)
Such complexity of design,ive come so far in 5 years,many thanks to freds education,style mixed with a bit of humor, im still trying to figure out how the pollen gets packed, so perfectly,...no theres no baskets,or pants, they sure wipe those antenae alot,cant say I saw any drones yet,maybe too soon,I really am facinated by the backwards take offs,like a army of helicopters,and they don't seem to argue,just work their jobs selflessly seemingly,their antenae articulate like hydraulic rams ,and wing attachments like mechanical motors revving up,up, mr dunn some clear details on this one ,creations design with adaptation pre programmed, just waiting to bee discovered, I give credit to the carpenters son
Nice! I'm so glad you enjoyed this close view and also appreciate their amazing function.
Well, hidden talents there dear sir 😂
I've always been a bad sleeper, so i do actually listen to asmr before 💤 😴
I'll give this a whirl ;) thanks Fred 👍
Did it work? There is something about their slowed sounds that gives it a strange atmosphere. I'll be working more with sound this year. Thanks.
@FrederickDunn oh was definitely relaxing, also lovely just laying watching the bees world slowed down, all around very relaxing Fred thanks 😊
❤👌 jak zawsze perfekcja
The only trouble is, im supposed to be relaxing eyes shut etc, but i can't help it, i have to keep watching the bees 😅
Aha, it's a visual trap :)
Great video. Looks like you and I were thinking about the same thing. Just released a slow motion video myself this morning. Great minds must think alike 😂
Slow motion is really where I get to see what's actually going on. We are fortunate to have equipment that gets us closer and slows them down. I never tire of that myself and am glad it's appreciated. I'll have to check in on your videos when I get some time :)
Such a Blessing…Thank you for sharing … excuse my ignorance can you tell me what the yellow sacks are on some of their legs. Again thank you
Corbiculas.
Those yellow balls are pollen that the bees have collected from floral sources in the environment. They add nectar or honey to the pollen to get it to adhere to their hind legs. The corbicula are where the pollen is carried as mentioned here by Kelly Moore :) It's used inside the hive as a protein source to rear new bees, known as bee-bread.
No guard bees on duty! Guess with all that activity everyone is busy with other duties…saw some fluffy newbies…
There were a couple of half-hearted guards that climbed onto my camera. But you're right, they are about getting stores in and not so much invested in hive defenses.
👍👍
Many of the bees exiting the hive seem to be cleaning their antennae before departing. What is that behavior?
It's their number one source of scent capability. Slicking those up prior to foraging is a top priority :)
😅,🇱🇨👍🏽❤️
Time stamp 1:21:39, is that a mite on that bee?
Ok, I knew this mite-spotting would start :) Are you talking about on the thorax where the wings meet the bee's body? If so, that's not a mite. I'm going to need more direction on this one :)
@@FrederickDunn 3rd segment from the tail end. There is a small dark flake on the right dorsal side.
Knowing that most mites attach themselves to the underside and it looking black, not red, I'm thinking not. Fred, your going to need and catch that bee for a better look.... :)
