Bee apperciation post and welcome

I created 'bees?' because I could find a bee community on lemmy.ca. I habe a biology degree and an interest in social insects. I recently invested in a property thag has space for bees and am on the list tohave two starter colonies next summer. The property has shown signs of wild bees in the area the pear tree was flowering already and the entire tree was humming with honey bees. And while converting a storage shed into a chicken coop, I had many conversation is a few different bumble bees. Mostly on how the fiberglass was not a good place to make a home, especially the pile about to be disgarded. I wish to learn more about how to effectively keep bees in the canadian climate, collect honey/pollen/wax and share space with this wonderful little creatures. Thanks for stopping by, feel free to introduce yourself and why you like bees/or are here. Or just lurk either way you are welcome.
