You can't juts think about Varroa all day..
I went and checked all the hives again at my favourit yard - nice, sunny, warm day.
All seems Ok. The bees are pretty busy and I could not see anything unusual.
Some honey coming in - the Iron bark, I think.
One hive had about 50 SHB - all lining up for me to squash them.
It is mid winter here...there is brood, plenty of eggs, actice queens. Bees never cluster here.
WE never have a brood break. I don't think we will get a frost this winter.

We had a perfect day to day - 24C in the shade - mid winter!!
More rain on the wasy and no frosts so far.
The Cobblers Pegs are flowering and the bees are busy.
I have also seen Tallowood and Floded Gum budding.

12 months ago we had hives which were honey bound and we took honey off.
A different situation right now. Some hives are struggling
The temperatures are starting to lift and soon trees which are budding now will be flowering.
Spring can't be far off.
Bee North:
Interesting Max
Very different up here.
I just took honey off all my hives. A lot of flooded gum are
still in flower , they have been all winter!
I'm going to have to do splits soon...lots of drones and brood.
