萤火虫

【WIKI photo我自己去年拍了很多, 没有加工看效果】

虽然不是关于蜜蜂的, 但是也是昆虫吧。  最近心情不好, 这个也代表一下俺的心情。 虽然是去年写的。

萤火虫

你是不是活的

流星

夏日的旁晚

那么多的你

我可不可以许很多愿

让恶人死绝

让善人欢欣

上帝说

没有黑暗

哪会看得见光明

没有痛苦

哪会有快乐的心情

难道你就让

恶人得道

善人受苦一生?

我不想听你说

死了以后

他们会受惩罚

生时的恶

应该用生命来担承

上帝啊

你为啥掩面不听

你为啥一意孤行

下辈子

你让我做一个

发热的萤火虫

钻到恶人的胸膛

烧毁他那乌黑的心

天上下起小雨

上帝哭了

我并不知道

是因为我太小气

还是祂自己无能…

Feeding Bees Sugar

At times, you may need to provide food to honey bees so that they do not starve. This includes when packages are first installed, or when colonies are small or getting established. You can provide supplemental food in the form of honey in combs or as a sugar syrup. A 3-pound (lb) package should receive at least two deep frames of honey or 2 gallons of syrup, which will provide enough food for about 2 weeks. If colonies are started with foundation only, more food should be provided because one pound of wax costs about 8 pounds of honey to produce. In the spring and early summer, use thin sugar syrup. Thin syrup mimics a honey flow from plants, and queens will be stimulated to lay eggs. Thin sugar syrup should be 50% (l lb of sugar to 1 lb of water).

Fall presents another time for providing food to bees. During a nectar dearth, which would be around August or September in Michigan, bees could starve due to the lack of floral resources. In Michigan, if you take all the honey from a colony, then you must provide enough food for them to winter. A typical colony will need from 70 to 100 pounds of honey to make it through winter. This translates to one deep super of honey plus three to four deep frames in the lower box. If you use medium supers, then you need two medium supers full of honey plus two to three medium frames in the lower box. Finish feeding by Oct. 1. At this time, syrup should be at least 66%, with 2 parts of sugar to 1 part of water. This is because bees do not have enough time (and high ambient temperature) to remove the water to make the syrup into honey (about 18% water). Providing thicker syrup will reduce the amount of work bees need to do.

You can provide syrup to bees via several methods. You can insert frame feeders, which are shaped like a frame of comb, into the brood box between other frames. You also can place hive top feeders on top of the colony to let bees go up and drink the syrup, or set glass jar feeders just outside the hive but near the entrance. Finally, you can set a bucket feeder on top of the hive and over the inner cover hole to provide to bees. Usually a hole is cut in the lid of the bucket and a fine mesh screen is glued over to provide bees access to syrup. Base the type of feeder you use on how much food you need to feed and how often you can refill the feeder.
