November 13, 2009 - 11 am

It was clear, slightly breezy, and 72º at the bee yard.

Alpha Hive

Since I put a jar of sugar water on the Alpha hive wednesday of this week I thought I should check it today. The jar is a four cup mason jar. The bees have consumed two cups as of today. I didn't open the hive. Weather permitting I'll do that tomorrow.



Beta Hive

I opened up the hive today just to look around. I found the queen on the second frame I removed, so I carefully put that one back in the hive. This hive looks like they have alot more honey and pollen stored than the Alpha hive.

I didn't look around too much after finding the queen. Closed it all up. Took a few pictures and movies of the hives. I will post them when time permits.
