Sunday - bees, weeds and flowers

After spending the entire day at school yesterday ... morning and afternoon on an AP Review session, adventure to Bowling Green HS and a PD afterwards, Sunday I was able to get outside for awhile.  Went to Sunday School this morning.  This afternoon checked all our hives ... most are good, about 6 are great and three are struggling.  I added some frames to four hives and will have to make some in the next week or two to stay ahead of the bees.  They have been busy and the good hives have over two medium supers filled ... two hives have over three.  Usually about 50 lbs of honey per medium super.

Mowed the yard at the house in Holland and sprayed some roundup around our barn to keep the weeds at bay late today.  

Tomorrow at school, it is plant day in AP and for Selected Topics, our amphibian dissection continues.  Year end exams start Tuesday so I will miss some AP time.

While visiting hives today, I looked to see if any of the dwarf irises were blooming and they were not ... picts below of the beginning of our frog dissection and flowers near the goat field ... bottom pict might be ragwort?
