Holy Bearding! It's going to be a hot one!

It's going to be a hot one in Connecticut today! If you didn't watch the news forecast then you can tell by the bees. When bees get hot they "beard". This picture was taken at 6:30 a.m. Even bees will hang out and try to stay cool. Inside they will do all they can to keep the hive cool. They will bring in water to cool the hive as well as fan their wings. We have made sure birdbaths and other water is available to the bees as well as the wild birds. Connecticut is expected to hit temperatures in the 100's today!
