Doing this hotel, we came to understated that nothing in life is easy, including winding a string of fairy lights up trees. But enjoying them in the evening is easy!

What is happening here? These bees absconded (abandoned their old nest) an hour earlier, and have come back to harvest their comb, which they will reuse at their new nesting site! Building honeycomb is resource heavy, so this saves a lot of effort.

Not all the bees we rescue stay with us. The comb may have gotten damaged during the process (like this one which broke), or the bees simply may not like their new location.

So they abscond to find a more suitable place. The important thing is that they were not killed, and after our rescue have another shot at establishing a strong colony again.

Our Singapore Specials arrived this evenjng! They are super tame and readily let you pick them up. Here they are roosting for the night. Chickens choose higher ground to avoid creeper crawlies on the ground like snakes etc. Attend our "Bananas, Birds, & Bees" experience to learn how everything in nature is connected!

We suspected the bees would love changi, and here's proof: Look at the quantity of pollen they're bringing in after a week! They're literally covered golden in it, and the cells are full of deposits on the way to becoming bee bread!

Our first two hives are installed, brought over from Siglap. We've waited a long time for this moment- there is more than enough floral resources here at Changi, compared to Siglap.

And we couldn't believe it when, within ONE hour, the bees had found pollen and were bringing it back by the pants-load!

In contrast it takes 1-2 days to see this at Siglap. Nature FTW!
