This time of year is sad, the end of beekeeping season but it is also the end of the drones life cycle. The worker bees chew off their wings and send them to their death. This was the scene on the landing board.
And this was the scene of the drone bees outside the hive on the ground. Dead drones, those slackers who the bees cannot afford as they move into the colder months. Here's hoping for a better season next year!
