...with songs they have sung, for 1000 years

Whahoo!My bees are alive!(with the sound of buzz-ing)We had an extreme cold snap (relative, very relative) here with a -20C night.  I didn't think they'd made it.  I kind of had a feeling.  I'm really on the fence whether this hive will make it through their first winter.  Neither death nor survival will surprise me.They had honey, but such small numbers....luck, chance, and the weather all have to weigh in before the winter's out.After that cold night - brrrr!  I couldn't hear anything when I pressed my ear to the front of the box.  The wind was whistling hard, but still.We've had a warm snap.  The kind where the above freezing temps suddenly expose all the old dog bones and buckets that blew away and random flagging tape on the ground, and you're wishing for a snow asap to cover it all up again.Today-lively humming.
