Early Autumn Beehives


I like the look of the beehives surrounded by some of our goldenrod.  You can't tell from the pic, but there's a nicely mowed clearing where the hives sit.   I was tickled to see this view from a distance away and down the hill from the hives - off on a side that I usually don't see the hives from.


The hives smell terrific this time of year.   Goldenrod honey - fall honey - has a strong, distinctive odor that you can smell several feet away from the hives.   I love that smell.
