This video captured by Tristan Heth on the island of Tenerife, shows how stable air flows over a mountain range or simple convection can form waves in the clouds that resemble an ocean [source: buff.ly/3wLra2Q-, authors' IG: buff.ly/3kzaTZO] x.com/pickover/status/144536…

Good morning beekeepers!
This morning we share our new cover photo. For this year's World Bee Day we held a photo competition for children. This collage shows all the highly commended entries including the winners of the competition. The result of this was very impressive.

What's the buzz?
"Metarhizium is like a mold, not a mushroom. When spores land on a varroa mite, they germinate, drill into the mite, and proliferate, killing it from the inside out."

Good morning beekeepers 🐝
Honeybees are the most important to us beekeepers, but do you know and can you identify all the other bees in Ireland?
The link below discusses the 99 bee species in Ireland.

Forage of the day!
Honeybees love the horse chestnut. When you see your bees bringing in a "brick red" pollen you know they're on the horse chestnut.
The flowers are just about finished now but it's a good tree to know about for your bees, if there are any in the area.
