 We had a weather warning today for high winds, hail and rain, so we kept an eye on the sky. Great clouds, but no storm here.

 We put yesterday's swarm of bees in a new hive, and tried to find the queen - no luck today, there are so many bees!

 Bee swarm! I heard it before I saw this.


Luckily they didn't go far and we were able to catch them.

 Yellow sweet clover is blooming on our walking path - it smells lovely. The canola field is also blooming.

 6ºC (42ºF) this morning and mist was coming off the pond. It did get to 25ºC (77ºF) in the afternoon.

 We rarely get 9 eggs in a day (we have 9 laying hens), so it is nice when we do. We usually get 7 a day.

Getting ready to clean out the chicks' cage, of course Miss Maggie had to jump in the box for the chicks.

 They are so curious - trying to take a picture and they all have to run over to see what is happening.

 Still smoke haze around (the canola is growing well too).

 I guess GingerSnap! was hot outside because he came in and flopped on the cool floor.

 Riding in the tiny Japanese yard truck is one of her favourite things (she even has a little platform for the passenger seat).

 Luckily Molly doesn't actually bite when she plays with the cats.
