What a happy smile - GREAT for you that everything went well. I imagine the feeder can went all over because at some point in shipping the post office stood the shipping cage vertically because of some label attached to the cage, it loses its vacuum and the syrup can run out easily, emptying the can literally.
I think it shameful that shippers don't MANDATORILLY write on cages "This END UP" for the post office to follow. I had a package just a few weeks ago that was waiting for me all day in a plastic mail box and the cage was vertical to expose the shipping info glue on the side of the cage - ugh.
I'm really happy you are in this as a family, no matter who handles the bees and who shoots the photos, it is a family thing and PLEASE continue to share the photos with us here - your smile truly made my day :) thanks.
P.S. Couldn't help note you Mom is holding Beekeeping For Dummies - thought I'd let you know the cover photo is mine (it's part of my 15 minutes of fame) I remember vividly the day I took that image, I placed a frame on the open door of my mailbox so I could get good sun and followed the worker around until I noticed her on all those different colored pollens. The whole job was part of a 6 month project with the author Howland Blackiston who also used about 2 dozen other images of mine in the book - just some personal history from the lucky guy who has the GREATEST family friendly Beekeeping Forum on Earth :-D
