I am now in week two of curation with MSP, this week I was looking for Bees. I came across many of my posts, but I am not a minnow, nor am I looking to curate my own content.. haha

I did find 5 minnows with some good bee posts, its always good to see others giving Bees attention.

Here are five content creators that caught my eye.

Löwenzahn als Speisesaal by @thomasthewolf

https://peakd.com/hive-121566/@thomasthewolf/loewenzahn-als-speisesaal

This post is in German, but pictures tell a thousand words. I translated it and got a good idea of what @thomasthewolf was pointing out. He was talking about how the Dandilions have opened and many Bees and other bugs are covering themselves in the pollen. He got some great photos of this happening as well.

What can be more wonderful by @marius19

This is the second edition in a series @marius19 is working on. They point out how wonderful flowers look, but its a bonus when a Bee visits the flower while viewing it. Great to see some pictures were taken of it.

Bee Hive Split Update 1 by @cryptogangz

This post is a video giving an update on how splitting a hive has been going. He says there is alot of activity and things are looking good for this Honey Bee hive. They are bringing in sugar water but not much pollen yet. He posted his video on LBRY. A platform I post to as well, great see other content creators on there.

The Queen is Dead, Long Live the Queen by @professorbromide

https://peakd.com/bees/@professorbromide/the-queen-is-dead-long-live-the-queen

The Professor lets us know what a Queenless hive can look like. And how it can break into a state a chaos without their queen. And I learned only the youngest offspring can be turned into queens. Hoping he gets a queen to emerge with the absence of the previous one.

AN EPIC HONEY-BEE RESCUE! by @craigcryptoking

https://peakd.com/homesteading/@craigcryptoking/an-epic-honey-bee-rescue

This video shows how using a modified shop vac. Bees can be rescued from a hive and moved to a new location. Ive seen Wasps and Yellowjackets moved this way. But seems this setup is not designed to kill but to help transfer the Bees to a new location.

That concludes my five picks for this week. Each of the Hive users mentioned got a 50% upvote from me. And these will be submitted to the Minnow Support Project for more attention.

Thanks to everyone posting on Hive, looking forward to picking five more posts next week. It may not be macro photography, probably something else.
