Swarm Hive
Today I removed the queen excluder that I placed on the bottom most hive body when I first hived this colony. There is now plenty of ventilation for the girls.
On my way home from the bee yard I saw a series of rain storms headed to town. By the time I arrived at home the weather had moved on. Well I decided to take a look at the bees in the back yard and saw that there were hundreds of bees clogging the entrance to get in! It looks like the bees were trying to get into the hive during the rainy weather. I took a few pictures. I am hoping its not the start of a swarm.
