Package on left has had robber screen on for 3 days now - you think they would have figured out the route by now, but they like to wad up on the outside of the screen where the entrance to the hive is.
They were so thick on the hive this afternoon - I was afraid they were swarming - but dreadfully hot (86) and humid. But the nuc is acting totally differently - calm.
I do worry about robbing, as both hives are being fed & on drawn comb, but there is little or no activity in front of hive in early morning.
Look familiar?
