If only I had some honeybees. {Deep sigh.} Still no word from the one beekeeper on the island who might be able to supply me with some bees. I can’t take this much longer. I’ve sent emails and left phone messages. No replies. Being entirely dependent on a single source for my honeybees, ugh — I wish I lived anywhere in Canada but Newfoundland right now. I’m calling again one more time tonight, and if I don’t get a response, I might lose it. In the meantime, check out some of the blossoms on our property that potential honeybees could be gorging themselves on.
This field was full of dandelions for the month of May. By August, it’ll be filled with other wild flowers.
The trees on the left are already full of blossoms.
Maybe they’re alder bushes. I don’t know. But there’s a few hundred of them growing back there.
I’m guessing honeybees would love to dig into these blossoms.
Tonnes of them!
Look at all that pollen.
The place is backed with blossoms.
We have loads of apple blossoms back there too. Honeybee paradise, man.
If only we had some honeybees.
And so it goes…
