Twin Pond Retreat has BEES

and the grand interns are here to treat them

Jennifer, Dave, and i checked on all of our rows of bees, holding up each tray to check for mites.  We have a small mite problem, so we’ll be dabbing a bit of powdered sugar on the trays within the next couple of days.  The sugar forces the bees to clean themselves intensely, in doing this, they clean-off mites as well.

check out those beautiful bees!
