April 11, 2020

No new filled tubes but bees are sticking their little heads out of the
tubes when I go on an inspection tour.   Activity level is high with three or
four bees coming and going within a 5 minute inspection period.

Most of the bees appear good size.  Although I don't have measurements, they
appear on the large side.

Looking into the cocoon bag, it appears that all the bees have emerged.

Every cocoon appears to have a large hole
I have noticed bees entering every type of tube:

parchment paper, cardboard , routed wood, bamboo tubes and computer
paper

I look forward to mid October when I will open all the tubes.

I don't think the bees have any idea what is going on regarding corona virus.

I suspect they are immune from the effects of the nasty covig19 virus.
