BEEcoming obsessed

I've collected a swarm, and have installed a warre beehive in the backyard. Now I can't stop listening at the back of the hive (ticka-ticka-ticka noise, like little clockwork gears), watching their comings and goings, and monitoring how much pollen is coming in. 

I've been accused of BEEcoming a hover mother.

(Sorry. The beekeeping world is filled with horrific puns.)
