It was about 60º at the bee yard today. The skies were clear and it there was a slight breeze.

Alpha Hive

Replaced the feeder jar today, old jar was empty. There was a lot of activity around the front of the hive and the entrance. The bees were bringing in a lot of pollen. While watching the entrance area I noticed a bee walking around the landing area with deformed wings...

Beta Hive

The feeder jar had one cup of fluid left, but I replaced it anyways. The bees also bringing in a lot of pollen. Beta Hive also is very active, there were a lot of bees in the air. I happened to see a drone land and crawl into the hive.

Took some pictures and movies, will post when Blogger is working correctly.
