The pond is full! And the bees are cold!

I think it's great that the pond is full.  But I am tired of the cold April weather.   April in Kansas is the time for bees to be foraging and gaining numerical strength for the upcoming honey flow.  The cold weather could be retarding sources of early nectar and pollen, which are important for the spring build up.

My neighbor to the south of the farm said we received 2 1/4 inches of rain last night.  I knew it would take just one gully washer to fill it.  By the way, I finished painting the boxes.
