    Omie,

    I think it may be safe to say you have been bitten (stung?) by the "bee bug". :D

    Great pics. Thanks.

    I think I had the 'bug bug' from the time I was about 5.
    I was always looking for critters.....didn't matter how many legs they had...or even none at all! :lol:

    Omie.... you just fell for the oldest and most used trick on beekeeping forums. The ol' "You got mites" after someone posts a picture..... :rolling:

    Relax....you got great looking bees. :thumbsup:

    Now shhhhh. Someone may be wanting to post some more pics soon.... :drinks:

    Oh you guys are BAD!!!
    Making Poor Omie worry about her bees!!! :cry:

    Well, actually there are some mites in there, I know (saw a few on the debris tray, and one on one bee). But no worriesome abundance of mites.
    But what really worried me was that I couldn't SEE them! What the heck?!? :eek:

    LOL LOL
