These bees look small to me. I did not regress.
How do your bees compare? I did try a couple of boxes with 1/2 to 3/4 foundation like Laurie had posted but they were not placed in the brood chamber.

Mine are about that size

Look about normal to me. Some of my foundationless bees seem much smaller.

I got to go close up that hive. It dropped down to 65 this morning and more rain. I am certain these bees are smaller than what I was getting before.

Close it up? Why, at 65? What, are you worried about the hurricane? Not sure I understand. By the way, the bees look about normal to me though its hard to tell in a picture. G

You don't think it would be excessive ventilation with the box offset like it is?

My Bad Ace, I assumed you did that after the photoshoot. I was thinking along another set of lines. Good Luck. G

Some of my bees look very tiney; I'm just west of Buffalo. And the drones looked extremely large!?
