It was 59º at the Bee Yard, clear skies and no wind.
Replaced the feeder jars of all hives today.
Alpha Hive & Beta Hive
A lot of entrance activity and bees flying all around the hive, could have been cleansing/orientation flights.
Swarm Hive
Noticed that there are no longer any of the light colored carnolians! All of the bees look like the Italians from the Alpha & Beta Hives. Its looking like the swarm hive perished and the other bees are robbing the hive. Although I didn't see any debris and such when bees rob a hive.
==========
At the back yard hive... on 15 January 2011 I replaced the feeder jar. There was a lot of entrance activity and many bees flying all around the hive yesterday and today.
I need to continue studying how to do hive splits!!!
