When the majestic eagle makes eye contact 😳 Bald eagles can be found across most of the country in the winter. Early in the year eagles are on the move with some traveling long distances to return to summer breeding grounds. Have you seen any lately? 📷 Courtney Celley/USFWS

Had a great day making hand dipped beeswax 🐝 candles. It was so satisfying seeing our work take shape 🕯️ Did you know that burning beeswax candles releases negative ions that bind to particles such as dust and pollen, neutralizing pollutants and creating a cleaner environment?

A break in the weather today gave us an opportunity to check our hives for the first time in a while. All 3 were queenright and building up brood (we even spotted 2 of our queens 👑) Vincent was a big help in the hive inspections and gave our girls some pollen & sugar patties.
