Lap dog

Arkle walked with various company picked up as we strolled.

Headed west to out apiary to do first checks. One weak colony and a drone keying colony so merged with newspaper as they would not make it as they stood. We see what happens. The rest had broid and plenty of bees so looking good so far.

Dinner made.

Visit to apiary to sort out the plinth.

Some hive maintenance and prepping for swarming.
