It's about learning how to make your first conversations in Italian, so it's suited for beginners. I'm going to be there at 20:00 (CET) to assist the teacher in the chat box. It's a Youtube première for beginners and Italian people are going to be there in the chat to provide help. Bee Italian challenge Première .
I went out for a few weeks away from home, and counted on my "beekeeping" roommate to take care of the bees. And a whole combination of bad decisions led to the death of half a hive and the queen, there is still maybe 2k left but with no queen. Any way I can find a queen this late?
I'm looking for something that looks like an Italian honey bee, with one of those old brown box TVs. I posted an example of both.
I remember reading somewhere that in Italian people dont ask how something is pronounced because of how phonetically precise the language is. If that's true does that mean that Spelling Bee's don't exist in Italy because you would know exactly how the word is spelt once its spoken?
First of all, I wrote the article for this show on Lost Media Wiki. It's about a group of whimsical creatures (whose names all start with the letter B) in a fantasy world. Three of them resemble animals (one being a bluish dinosaur-like one who can shapeshift), while the fourth one looks like a cloud or floating snowman. One of them can summon the Blue Wise Man (which I believe that's him to the right in the picture) who gives advice to the others, from what I read.
I'm unable to find any footage from this 13-year-old cartoon so far. This was one of the final projects of Italian animator Pierluigi de Mas, who died during production. I knew the show was sold to Finland and North African and Arabic regions. Since publishing the article, I discovered the show was also exported to Belgium as "Les Bi-Bis" and still couldn't find footage. I presume the best way to look for any footage is to find the show in Arabic.
And here it is on IMDB and the Italian Wikipedia.
Alright, within the next couple of days, I'm going to have to place a second brood box on my hive, and my questions are as follows.... 1.) Should I add an entrance to the second brood box?
2.) Should I add any holes for ventilation (I'm using a solid bottom board) in the second brood box, covering the holes with fine hardware cloth?
3.) When should I remove the entrance reducer? It's bee on the larger setting for a while now, and have noticed momentary traffic jams. And also I have had some problems in the past of robbing bees not a lot of them, and the time that robber bees did get into the hive, they were trying desperately to get out, they were trying to get out the top screen, and one fell and my bees was all over it, and it came back up to the top screen again. Which what started the robbing, was someone snuck up there and took the jar off the entrance feeder and put sugar water on the legs, and from what all I've read using an entrance feeder wasn't the best idea either. Thank You All!! Isaac.
I am new to beekeeping, have not yet bought any hives, equipment, etc. Currently focusing my research on which bee colony I would like to maintain. I am between the Italian Apis mellifera ligustica and the Mason Bee Osmia lignaria. If I chose to have a hive of each, would they be able to live in the same area or would there be issues among them despite plenty of resources available for both.
Edit: In my rush I did not add flair, I apologize.
This is in a small operation with about 6 hives down by salt water if that matters at all and in coastal North Carolina.
