Newbee

Good day. I joined this morning. I am from the northeast New Brunswick canada. On June1st I received my first hive of Saskatraz. I am learning as I go. I research as much as I can and realized beekeepers tend to manage their hives their own ways.
I didn’t take honey my first year. Treated with formic pro sept 1st. Single treatment 10 days apart. Haven’t opened hive since so they can seal it well before fall. Going into winter I have 2 double supers with 10 frame each.
Having fun as I go.
On a warm day in December I saw my first cleansing flights. Pretty cool. Since I have only one hive I tend sit in a chair near the hive and watch. occasionally I get lucky when a bee lands on me as if to say hello
