@olivers.hives: It was a warm day and these girls were bearding… What is bearding? Bees bearding is a common, normal behavior where thousands of honey bees cluster on the outside of the hive, forming a "beard" shape, typically during hot, humid evenings. It is a heat-management strategy used by strong colonies to reduce overcrowding, increase ventilation, and keep the hive internal temperature around 90-97°F #beekeeper #backyardbeekeeper #savethebees #beekeeperlife
