Where are my Honey Bees finding all this Pollen?? || BEEKEEPING & HERBALISM

[@cbbees1468]

I've noticed since keeping bees, they make you notice the subtleties of nature that you had never noticed before. This is coming from someone who has enjoyed the outdoors my whole life but the bees manage to find the smallest flowers that had previously gone unnoticed.

[@TheHoneystead]

What you said 100% ^^^ and how awesome it is that you notice your alertness to some of the smaller things in life!

[@jgflight2002]

Great video. I am in my third year beekeeping. My girl are strong and booming. I now let my weeds grow to feed my bees and get the pollen an nectar they need. My neighbors asked my why I don’t keep my yard cut down like I used to, I told them it is to feed my bees and let them get food. The weeds are great source of food for them. Now my neighbors see the bees and don’t cut their weeds down as quickly, especially after I brought them a large jar of honey at the end of the season as a gift and thanks for letting the bees feed. Bees truly are amazing to watch and learn from. Love the channel! Greeting from Alabama to you and your family.

[@TheHoneystead]

What a lovely gift you give to your bees and it’s awesome to hear you are teaching your neighbors!!! Honey is always a sweet treat for sure! Great job!!!

Here in the mountains in California my Bees are Gathering up mistletoe Pollen right now.. Have a good one and take care..

[@TheHoneystead]

I need to look up mistletoe pollen? What color is it??

[@HILLBILLYSFIREWOOD]

Orangish yellow

[@davidmartin6312]

[@TheHoneystead]

I’m glad you enjoy, I know this last year hasn’t been the easiest for people and it means a lot to me that I’m about to help others 💛

Thank you again for another wonderful video. In this climate of turmoil and uncertainty, you are an oasis of peace and serenity.

Thank you 😌

[@HerEcolife]

Oh gosh your not in a winter coat.. Totally Jealous. We let our weeds grow for the native pollinators. Can't wait to have my first bees in May :)

I love the little yellow sweatpants they were coming back 🥰 so cute 🐝

[@raymondrobinson5251]

I got to watching your channel because of your statement of "Learn something Old!" Another saying i love is "Think with me, not like me!"

[@TheHoneystead]

That is a wonderful saying 💛

[@chelinfusco6403]

To give God the glory for these amazing creatures makes me so proud of you. Many herbalist don't believe in God. It is refreshing to one that does. 💖

[@strugglingbeekeepermarkcot9642]

Thanks for sharing. I say that all the time Honeybees are one of GODS greatest creations. Hope you all have a great day.

I love watching my girls come home with that bright red henbit pollen!

I love the sweet Henbit:)

Isn’t it Beeutiful 💛

[@DonaldRogersBaldEagle]

lots of pollen. nice I will be getting my bees in a couple weeks. I'm so excited.

[@TheHoneystead]

Yay!!! Happy bee vibes going your way!

[@timashton1353]

Lol, I did the same when it was warm enough here in UK. Filmed honey bees on Quince, Gorse, Honeysuckle and Crocus. I'm planning on using my microscope to analyse a pollen sack from a Bees Knee's!

[@TheHoneystead]

That is really awesome! Are you able to take pictures of the pollen under microscope?

[@timashton1353]

@@TheHoneystead hey, yes you can take pictures, I've sent email with examples attached, I hope you get it! Enjoy 😉. I'll do more when it warms up again. 😃

[@sylviaandalanb9936]

It warms my heart to see your bees go in and out of the hive❤️ we still have a foot of snow but I know that spring is almost here and I am feeling optimistic....

What an awesome God we serve. Happy harvesting!

[@raymondrobinson5251]

Me again! If you actually look at what we call vegetables you'll notice they have the same characteristics of weeds! I noticed this 30 plus years ago working in my parent's garden. We had a lot of volunteer seeds each year.

I *_LOVE_* that little blue flower! I wish we had them! (central Texas)

[@mountainhobbit1971]

'A weed is just a plant that someone decided they didn't want there'. Nothing blooming here yet in northern New Mexico but I have seen that the tulips and daffodils have popped up through the ground.

[@TheHoneystead]

I like that saying! Hoping for blooms to head your way!

[@CastleHives]

So so true Kaylee, let the weeds grow. I think we are a few weeks from seeing Dandelions yet.

[@jimbraun3955]

I was loading up some cinder blocks yesterday and saw my first bee out on that little blue flower. It sure was nice to see her out!

[@TheHoneystead]

💛 I love that!

[@tamararobinson2069]

My Fav garden sign is “ Don’t mind my weeds - I’m feeding the bees” The first American settlers brought Dandelions with them as a crop, easy to grow full of good attributes for the body💚 I don’t have some of the “weeds” you showed in my area - Is it weird I have an urge to plant them😆 Thank You for spreading your experience & knowledge🥰

[@wayneshoneybees5439]

In Cincinnati the silver maples, Elm, and crocus are starting to bloom. Next week forecast is 4 days in the 60's. I bet it's flow time.

[@TheHoneystead]

Yay for warm weather 🙌🙌🙌

[@saintjohncoleman8602]

Here in SE coastal Virginia, bees are bringing in pollen from red maple, and the henbit and dandelions have been blooming for a month or so.

[@TheHoneystead]

I just noticed today that the red maples are starting!!! I can’t wait!

[@fallenangelwi25]

I'm sorry but are those little pollen packed legs and furry rear ends not the cutest!?!! 🐝❤️🐝

[@poplarcreekfarm19]

I love saying I’m helping the bees by being “lazy” with weeds! Truly I will happily leave all the weeds I can, except in my garden, for my ladies 🐝

[@TheHoneystead]

Lol 100% weeds in the garden is difficult haha

*hahaha I tried chasing them to catch them forage, but it's not as easy as one would think 😀 Thanks for this. I was wondering where mine were finding pollen when nothing was blooming.*

[@TheHoneystead]

Lol it’s always fun bee watching:)

[@debcothran7564]

I actually found a source for dandelion seeds on Facebook and ordered some

[@TheHoneystead]

Ohh lovely!!!

[@BlanchardsBees]

Have you ever tried fried dandelions? Delicious! I aways thought weeds were weeds till I started raising bees now I see all their different benifishal uses and see them as edible flowers.

[@TheHoneystead]

Ohhh wow! I haven’t!!! That sounds yummy!

[@BlanchardsBees]

@@TheHoneystead similar to the morels! And about the same season!

[@TheHoneystead]

I’m doing it 🙌🙌🙌

[@BlanchardsBees]

@@TheHoneystead That's awesome! If you do a video on it can you possibly mention who gave you the idea💡? Just make sure you pick them from a chemical & pesticide free yard and I'm sure you'll love them. I think they look like fried spiders when they're done. LOL ENJOY!

[@a3skywarrior929]

Old French settlers’ dish made from dandelion leaves and bacon grease. Haven’t had it since I was little. I remember it was pretty yummy 😀! Yes! No pesticides or herbicides. I’ve stopped both before getting bees. They love dandelions and they are always in bloom spring till late fall 😉

Lovely!!!!

[@almoustaphamahjoubi9562]

A bee is good and does not eat anything but good and gives nothing but good. If it falls on something, it does not break it, so the beekeeper must be like it. Thanks 🐝

[@coexmxjohn1]

Amazing Kaylee!! Watch the bees in the hair. Sure way to get stung. Do you ever rest?😃

[@TheHoneystead]

Lol I do enjoy a lazy day every so often 💛

[@michellehill4148]

What is often considered a "weed" is actually a native plant to your area.

[@mmcharchuta]

Well not necessarily... Solidago Canadensis is great for my bees in Poland, but it's a bitch of an invasive species as well and definitely a weed :/

Do you treat your bees for where mike and do you use a acrylic acid, do you leave your entrances on small entrances at all times what part of the world are you in I forgot whenever you said it and I thank you I have enjoyed all the trips with you and times that we have been together me here you there i'm in illinois and I have 21 lives thank you

[@TheHoneystead]

I do you OA when needed and I never open my colony up all the way. I judge my colony size, it it’s a smaller colony, I keep the entrance small!

Oh my goodness. 0:29 I always laugh when someone talks about trying to get rid of dandelion. I am growing it in pots because I live in the tropics and for some reason it does not like growing in the soil here or perhaps the climate. Frustrating.
