- There was lots of capped brood;
- more bees so some have hatched
- I didn't see the queen but saw lots of larvae in various stages so I expect she's still in there. I always feel better, however, if I actually see her.
- Sugar water was all gone this time - probably because of all the rain we had last week. But it's sunny today! I added more sugar water.
- So far, these bees have a great nature. Not at all hostile.
- They are busy working in the second deep as well. Lots of nector; a lot of cleaning done. It actually felt heavier than I expected when I removed it to get to the bottom deep.
- There was a lot of debris on the bottom board so I scraped that all out before adding the sticky board
Then I closed it up. I also mowed the bee yard and added a pot of flowers.
