Thanks for asking! For my first attempt at beekeeping, Mother Nature sure was tough on me. If losing my hive wasn’t enough, our first real winter storm blew a tree down on it! My hive took a glancing blow from one of the main branches of the felled tree. It only dented the tin of the outer cover but it crushed my hive stand.
I recovered the hive and have a new stand. I have a new beeswax coated top feeder with the appropriately sized shroud. My Nuc is on order for late April delivery and I can’t wait to start. There’s a healthy beekeeping community around that has been supportive so while I’ve made some noob errors, I hope to manage better come spring.
