It was about 83º at the Bee Yard in the country.
Beta Hive
The hive had two honey supers. I removed nine frames from one super and 2 frames from the second honey super. I left the remaining frames in the super and added empty frames to fill it up.
Back Yard Bees
Epsilon Hive
The hive had two honey supers. I removed both honey supers.
Eta Hive
No activity from hive. Will look into it tomorrow.
Zeta Hive
Fair amount of activity, will look into that hive tomorrow.
Extracted the honey and it fills the 5 gallon honey bucket to the top lip. I will let it settle and bottle honey on Monday or so.
The harvest filled 26 pint jars and 8 quart jars.
Eta Hive is no more. The hive failed to flourish for whatever reason. I will keep a closer watch on the remaining hives
