Just a short entry, 'yes, Dad I have done something since May...' We had a three day in-service training and I took some pretty awesome pictures of bees to share. The workshop was very useful for the community contacts, in my case my did not come...but that is neither here nor there. It took place at an agricultural high school right outside of Asuncion, on the trans-chaco highway...so on the edge of the Chaco. They had bees to yogurt and cheese-making, a real technical and advanced school, what a great oppurtunity for those students. I'll try to caption each picture explaining them...
Two volunteers, Keith and Mitra and one community contact, Hugo...anxiously waiting to get to the apiary!
The Colegio San Fransisco de Asis's apiary in Cerrito, Presidente Hayes, Paraguay.
A community contact opening the hive.
A real sweet photo...that said, a worker bee eating some honey.
The bottom half of the hive...with a queen excluder.
This is what a wax moth does to the frame.
Where's the queen?
So the lighter yellow are capped drone babies...and the flatter darker is the worker bees.
Just a bee!
