From last year they were Sleeping Beeuties 2018 to

 

 

This year 2019  again these little kind and sweet bees have caught me unaware and when I opened

the sleeping box there were a few anxious looking faces!  So up went the boxes sharpish

and they were put on top to feel the fresh air and off they flew ~ they'll be back always

to the same spot they first remember.

These are the boxes facing South in the hot sun.

Wildlife have no respect for photographers!

Hi @Martin-O2 The boys are out and about today 10th April (no girls yet) sunny and warm on this South Wall ~

This is a close-up of some of the boys in the tubes ~ they go in and out of these tubes (waiting for the girls)  ~   looks like they are squeezing inbetween the tubes too upside_down

Hello @TallTrees 

Do the boy bees & the girl bees look the same?

Hello @Anonymous 

 

The girls are larger and more woolly so I can recognise the males easily.

They are all cuties though!

I am very pleased you liked the Video and the photos @liggerz87  Thank you ~ glad you have recovered from your Fluyahoo

A bee feasival sounds fantastic.  

Conwy is about 300 miles away so even though I would love it, unfortunately it is too far.

My bees are feeling cold at the moment so not much activity.  The weather is due to get

hotter so they will be out and about.

Thanks for the encouragement to make a Video and @Cleoriff helped me to get the video

embedded.  I enjoyed it.
