Lot of activity at the bee tree today with the temps in in the 50's.  I am not sure if my other bees were robbing it or if it is the bees that came with the tree.  Either way, it's a win.  Days like today ramp my excitement for the next season.

When you put your hand on the tree, can you feel the warmth they're generating?  I wonder what kind of R value a thick log has.

Sorry, just saw this post.  I will put my hand on it the next time in the yard.  I was out there today and verified they are still alive in there.

I thought this tree was a deadout when I checked it a couple days ago.  However, after today, I am thinking it is good to go.  Here are a compilation of videos I took today.  The temps were the warmest since last fall at 63 degrees.
