Ok I was looking around the interwebs and think I was identifying part of some newly formed comb. I think I have it correct now and wanted to confirm. Take a look at this pic:

Beehive Bee Honeycomb Insect Yellow


In the center there are all these capped cells that I was calling pollen. In the very middle you can see an uncapped larva and on the right kind of hard to tell there are plenty of smaller larva there. After some looking around I think the capped bits that take up most of the comb is brood. Is that correct?

Now look at this pic:

The shinier golden liquid closer to the top should be honey and the muddier and slowly textured liquid goop is the pollen. Does that look/sound correct?

Thank you for any help.
