That sux with somebody shooting at your hives!!
I live in the country and Ive considered putting 2 garden hives out front of my shop about 2 hunderd feet from the road, but i ALWAYS REMEMBER HOW MUCH OF A JERK i WAS WHEN i WAS A KID!...i'M FIGURING THAT SOMEBODY WOULD DRIVE BY AND SHOOT MY HIVES JUST FOR THE HECK OF IT....and theres no telling where the bullets might go! It could go into my boat...or my shop....or maybe even thru the woods into my house :(....so.....no hives out front.....at least not yet.
your friend,
john
Oh yeh...those were really good pictures too! Nice light on the comb!
