No.  Didn't expect any this year because it was so late when we got our swarm but they have loads to go through the winter and we don't need to feed them yet.

A new beekeeper on my site produced honey this year but had to destroy it because his bees were infected with something (though not the varroa mite)  Sad

No amount of time can erase the memory of a good cat, and no amount of masking tape can ever totally remove his fur from your couch.
