Sad to hear Pete Little (known as Hivemaker) of Exmoor bees has passed away. He was a legend in his own lifetime. One of the most knowledgeable bee keepers I've ever talked to ....and boy could he talk ......often into the early hours. Ran me up a few large phone bills over the years.
He was the foremost Buckfast breeder in the UK using Brother Adams old isolated mating sites. I do hope his sons follow on in his footsteps.
He will be sadly missed.
RIP Pete.
