brood chamber in upper deep

I feel like I must have switched the deeps around but I really don't think I did.  During today's inspection here was my action list:

• remove supers and take honey for me
• add varroa mite strips to the two deeps
• add sugar water in the top hive feeder
• inspect all frames.
• add mouse guard to hive opening
• mow the grass around the hive in the fenced area

I saw good brood patterns and many eggs, capped and uncapped honey.  It looked good...except all this was in the upper deep.  The lower deep had a lot of uncapped honey; some brood pattern, some capped honey.  I'm worried now that they won't have enough honey stores to get them through the winter.

There is a lot of pollen again now with the goldenrod in full bloom.  I hope they can fill up some of that uncapped honey and cover for their own use this winter.

I did buy pollen patties to help them later on.  I guess we'll see what the next weeks show.

I really wanted to add another deep above the other two but that's probably something I'll want to do in the spring.  Or if I can, I'll start another hive in the spring.  But first I need to see these through the winter.
