First nice day since installed. Sunny, upper 40's.

Hive #1 had lots of bees outside the hive... well not LOTS but more than hive #2. I opened hive #2 and the queen was still in the cage. The candy was eaten down quite a ways. I took a stick and pushed it in. I put the cage back and after that there was lots of bees flying around hive #2. duh. They both seem to be doing well. Seem to be so many more bees than we had last year. Of course the drawn out comb helps a lot. Looking forward to our second year. And to the other queens I have coming! Eek! I need to get some more bees!
