30 APR, 4:15 pm - 2011

At the Bee Yard it was about 84º, clear skies with light winds.

Beta Hive
Removed 1 full honey super for harvest. Installed 1 empty honey super. The hive has three honey supers. Top honey super is the one that looks like it will be ready for harvest in a week. Middle honey super is the one installed today. Bottom honey super look like it will be ready in two weeks.

Alpha Hive
Did not inspect the hive at this time. When time and opportunity allow I will do a better inspection.

============================

Extracted the honey and it filled the 5 gallon bucket to the half way mark. Letting it settle for a day or two before bottling/canning it.
