I am liking the gal.iron roof - a kind thought for bees in the Wet
getting to hear the rain coming down :-)
Can I ask how far you are along that Trigona/Trigonella path?
Cheers.

I'm hoping the roof works well during the wet season but only time will tell.
As for my native bees I've opened a small business selling and renting hives as well as selling things like honey wax so on, currently got two types of native bees Tetragonula mellipes and Austroplebeia magna which have been doing very well this year.
Heh, never did get much latin beyond "mea culpa", plus my retention on flora/fauna
names is terrible!
You are well ahead of me, being at resale. My goal being Nat.Parks donations.
Hopefully this September I can set more traps and do some splits from last year's efforts.
Have HumptyDoo mangos come in yet?
Ours, after nix/zilch flowerings in 2016, have come in early with all bees at it in droves.
My only (common) Lychee began just yesterday with the orchard due to come on in
two weeks, all going well.
Again, few to none of these in 2016.
Cheers.
