the tulip poplars have just started to bloom here and i saw the first new white wax cappings in one of my strong colonies today. this comes after 3-4 weeks of swarming and spring supercedures, and it marks the beginning of what promises to be a good main nectar flow this year. all of my drawn supers are already in use but i added supers with foundation today. each of these supers got a little drawn comb for bait and were placed one box down from the top, which was generally about the top of the working level in most hives.
