Hello all,
The bees are building comb on 5 topbars. Bar 2 is half again bigger than the biggest one in the pictures, but I ran out of room on the camera before my wife could get a picture of it. So far so good.
All the best,
Gregg

They can really put the comb out, can't they?
Are you feeding them?

Hello,
I'll have the wife get closer next time. She was a little nervous getting as close as she did. The bees have been taking almost a gallon of 1:1 a day. I was going to stop feeding, but there is still not much blooming, so will continue for awhile. Spring has sprung!!!
All the best,
Gregg
