I have bees on my smallholding. Have to say that I find the sight of a gathering and departing swarm quite spectacular. Was good to read your report and learn a little more, and also it was the first time I'd seen the Waggle video , so thanks too for that. Upvoted and followed.

Thanks, @elaine54! What sort of hive do you have, and is it to gather honey or to fertilize your crops?
I'd love to hear more about your smallholding. The Wife and I are hoping to head to the UK sometime soon and spend as much time over there as we can.
It was for both, I'd planted a load of fruit trees. However,,, the dairy goats kept escaping and stripping the bark from ground level to about 6ft high, so then I began to pretend to myself and everyone else that I only had them for the honey... I shall begin posting tomorrow so you'll soon be able to read about the smallholding!
