Native Irish Black Bees - Pics

[Sumi]

I went to a show in one of the local villages yesterday and found a display of Native Irish Black Bees. I thought you all might like to see what we have here in Ireland.

Here you can just see the queen, she has the yellow spot on her head for identification. According to the stall holder she is 4 years old. Sorry I couldn't get a better pic, she refuse to move out from behind this smeared piece of the glass.

I wouldn't mind giving them a try... wonder how friendly they are? That's a nice display hive, thanks for sharing!
