Lesley Posted June 12, 2008 Author Share Posted June 12, 2008 Sorry The sixth one is quite obscure - just a tiny gingery/tabby face peeping underneath the gate. To the left, and below, the black cat. L-R 1. Left of photo, on fence. 2. O top of the butt. 3. Top of Hive 4. R/H side of Hive 5. then....... look through the gate to the fencing at the back. Where the front gate has a diagonal bar you can see a cat's face - I think I know there was a cat there when I reached for the camera! 6. Black cat on top of the fence.

Nicola H Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 Thanks Lesley I couldn't find the sixth cat it has been driving me mad ..............I can see it now.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted June 12, 2008 Author Share Posted June 12, 2008 ....I'm not imagining it then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 I can't believe I am sad enough to have done this. I can't see the sixth where you suggest Lesley, but can see what could be a tiny face marked with x under the third horizontal bar of the fence. Sorry the pink lines are wobbly, I am not drunk, just left handed using a right handed mouse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Egluntyne Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 I still can't make anything out. I'll try adjusting the horizontal hold on my contact lenses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted June 13, 2008 Author Share Posted June 13, 2008 Don't worry - it's a well camouflaged, gingery, tabby face - it could well be a clump of grass for all I know! If you're desperate to see a photo of cats, I'll send you one of the grey ones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowy Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 Well I still can't see a cat but it's given me a laugh! I think it must've ducked behind the bar of the gate just as you took the photo Lesley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theherd123 Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 Do you ever think some folks just have way too much time on their hands?! Personally i think i can see the pet giraffe Lesley keeps - behind the gate just above the trees Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Egluntyne Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 They look the same to me . Ugly with big teeth and bad breath, and a tendency to spit. Just reread that........I could have been describing an old art teacher from my schooldays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted June 17, 2008 Author Share Posted June 17, 2008 We actually made it to an apiary meeting on Sunday. The only visits we've made so far - last year and this year - have been in torrential rain. We were beginning to think we were jinxed We didn't really have time to go as Carl was strimming weeds and I was trying to finish grouting the kitchen tiles....... we scoffed sandwiches in the car on the way there and made it on time...........in the sunshine We opened up hives of very angry bees and it was a bit scary for a time. The bees settled and we helped with some 'queen grafting'. The bees were angry because it was a lean time in the woods for any forage for the bees - but ours at home have plenty We came home and went through our own hive whilst we still had all the Teletubby gear on. We found the queen in the swarm we collected and marked her. We were worried that we may have left the queen behind or she might have flown away, but all was well. They are all doing well and are really busy. From the colour of the pollen being brought in, they are foraging on the elderflower and buttercups! We added an alighting board to the hive so that they have a landing area and we can observe the bees as they land with pollen stores. This is now my view from my computer! - 2 hives in waiting!
