More work on the coop today. Dan put in a few windows for venilation, but we probably will still need to add a whirlybird or solar fan when Summer arrives. I worked on cleaning a predator skull and will post photos when it is finished. When Dan stops for a break and sits in the shade of the warehouse he looks up and sees along the entire length of the gutter WASP NESTS! So a trip to Ace Hardware for 20 ft wasp & hornet spray foam is added on the "to do" list today. Checked the solar wax melter for over flow of wax or to see if any frames were done. Made more swarm lure boxes, fixed bottom boards, and painted more feeder boards and boxes. Had a pile of cell bars stacking up so cleaned the old wax off and reapplied new cell cups to 50 bars. Worked in the orchard a bit........such a beautiful time of the year! Pear tree is blooming and buds are starting on the olive.
