The Southern Pagdeni stingless bees have settled into their beautiful new handcrafted hive built with loving care by retired woodworker Carl in Chiang Mai. I left about 1/4 of the brood and some honey to feed on in the old hive on top and that seems to be going well too. #99hives #stinglessbees #bees #beekeeping #bangkok

Today, I moved an old hive of my stingless bees into a new posh 3-tier hive I got them for the New Year. They seem to like it. And collected some incredible honey. Tastes super sweet with a tang of citrus from our lime trees. #99hives #stinglessbees #bees

The stingless bees going crazy for the flowering basil. #99hives #BangkokGarden

Bee-sitting 10 stingless beehives that arrived today from Phatthalung in Southern Thailand. They are heading up to Chiang Mai in a few weeks. Opened 3, will open 3 more tomorrow morning and the rest tomorrow evening to try and reduce any swarming. #99hives. #Bangkokbeekeeping

Some good stingless bee action in the garden this morning. #99hives #urbanbeekeeping #BangkokGarden

Our stingless bee honey is amazing. Super sweet with a citrus tang (from all our citrus trees). Rich in medicinal value, some call such honey a “miracle liquid.” #99hives

Nursery season. Grow during the rainy season, produce during the cool season (hopefully). Also this year, bee food 😀#BangkokGarden #99hives

Stingless bee hive monthly weighing day today. First hive which seemed to suffer from predator birds lost some weight, but 2nd & 3rd about the same as last month while #4 gained 85 grams. Birds have now been scared off by Howie the hawk. #99hives #stinglessbees #beekeeping #UrbanBeeKeeping #Bangkok

Happy World Bee Day! #99hives #WorldBeeDay
