A Few Rays of Light

Post by Derek Klepp »

I like the idea of this.I hope these pics brighten up your day. My apologies to all for not being here for so long.Following drought then fires then covid I am still going down under after having experienced the worst year in beekeeping in perhaps the last four decades.Still there are others far worse off .
take care everyone and stay safe.
Cheers Derek

Oh Derek! thank you for these beautiful pictures :bow :bow such a joy to look through. I have been so worried about you, especially not hearing from you for so long. We worried during the fires and we worry during this outbreak. So much worry, I am glad for these views.

I did wonder about the bottom picture though, I presume it is mushrooms, they look rather rude and it made me laugh :lol:
