Goldenrod

The goldenrod is done blooming, pretty much all flowers have stopped. The little ones that are left I don't think provide much nectar, maybe a little pollen. The extra box I put on the hive has partially filled a couple of frames. But it was enough for the bees to feed on for a little while so I don't have to feed them. I am hoping a more natural diet will help the bees make it through the coming winter. And it looks like winter is coming early this year. Here it is the end of October and we are getting snow in the mountains. Ug.
