Beekeepers

JRHS teacher JF Pepin shows student and staff what to look out for in the JRHS beehive.  The drone,which is larger than the worker bees, is spotted and there is only one queen bee. Both good signs.

Now there are three wasps!

Now there are three wasps buzzing around the JRHS greenhouse. I also spotted whiteflies on the pepper plants, likely wasp food. 

More greenhouse whiteflies?

It appears the whitefly problem is still present on some pepper plants.  Now that chance if frost is hopefully over, time to get these babies outside for good!

Wasp makes greenhouse its home

Hard to believe, but the wasp that had landed on a succulent growing in the JRHS greenhouse was still on it this morning. Looks like this wasp is happy here. Certainly better than being outside with today's light flurries!
