Surviving the cold

Well, the cold has been brutal for all of Ontario.  Perhaps most affected are the bees.  Extreme cold for extended periods of time can wipe out the colonies.  If the bees don't have the energy to create air currents in the hive, condensation will coat their bodies and eliminate them.

Five of seven hives shown have sounds in the hive.  Fingers crossed for the other two.

At least the bears are not a threat.
