28 March, 2010 - 11:30 am

It was about 70º and partly cloudy.

I didn't inspect Alpha or Beta hives today, I'll check in on Tuesday or Wednesday for signs of a queen.

The frames I removed from the Beta hive are being cleaned up nicely by the bees.

I checked on the hived swarm today. There is a lot of in/out activity of the hive. I didn't open the hive but I did look underneath through the screened bottom board and there are not so many bees there today. It looks like the queen left. But there there are alot of bees inside at the top of the hive feeding from the feeder jar. They consumed 1 quart of sugar water since yesterday!! I put a replacement on and will check again tomorrow morning.
