How do you get started with bees? I'd like to do this in my yard.

... quantum fields of zero-point energy...

Are the bees just moving north because of globull warming? Or......... are we doomed?

Does algore know?

The Goreacle knows all. Just ask him. You may have to buy some carbon credits to get to him.

When one turns, the other also makes a slightly different but corresponding turn; when one faces the front, the other always faces toward the side. If you remain unaware of the full scope of the situation, you might even conclude that the fish must be instantaneously communicating with one another, but this is clearly not the case.

The thing about thought experiments is that they're supposed to be plausible. Virtually anyone who is not loopy would conclude, upon looking at two different video views, that the simultaneous movement combined with a difference in perspective combined with different perspectives of the same number of watergrasses and ceramic Japanese footbridges are different views of the same things, not that there is instantaneous communication between different fish in two different tanks.

The Goreacle, that's a great name thanks.

I really made a silly comment just to bump your thread and I plan to come back and read it again.

Lol. I wish I came up with it. Thanks for the BTTT.

I started by signing up for an evening adult ed at a local school, run by a local bee club. We used "Beekeeping for Dummies" (what else!?), available from Amazon. Check out some beekeeping supply houses on the web (MannLake, Betterbee, Dadant and others).

It will cost about $300 to setup your first hive, plus $70 for 3 lbs of bees with queen (she is kept separated till you populate the hive). If you live in a northern clime, you'd probably be best to learn now, and plan for a hive or two in April 2008.

Check for your state beekeepers association. They can probably point you to a local association or beekeeper who can get you started. Beekeepers tend to be extremely friendly and helpful, and there's no substitute for local information when it comes to beekeeping.

For the record, how many freepers besides me have actually observed the bee waggle dannce?

[bert]

Find a local bee keeper group, attend a meeting. Find a mentor there who will help you get started.

Now, that is within the next 2 or 3 weeks, is the best time to start. You buy a hive and a package of bees and voila....you're a bee keeper.

Bee keepers are like FReepers they like one another but have varying ideas on how to do any thing.

It's tough keeping bees at present. They die off.

Is he knitting a conundrum?

THANKS.

Fascinating

[freedomfiter2]

I have.

The beekeeper who got me started thirty years ago, said that the trouble with bees is that they don't read the beekeeping books.

I have been using “Blossom Set” for several years now on my tomato plants due to lack of bees and heat. One theory is that there is a bee mite killing off bees………….
