Spring is Coming ? ! ?

Our beekeeper reports that all five hives are doing well, and some are starting to raise brood. This must mean there is something blooming out there for them to find nectar.

This witch hazel is blooming in the "V" section. Did the bees come all the way up here to find it?



The meadow is being mown, which is usually done in early March, but Spring is early this year, despite the cold wind of today.





The invasive Norway maples are being removed from the Picnic area and Japanese bridge garden.







The Norway maples have been marked with a red splotch.









This dandelion is a sure sign Spring is coming.
