Hive #1

Hive #1 - the bees getting back in the house. It was 70+ degrees today and time to finish up with bee work.
I combined the top two supers on this hive into one - they should be fine for the winter or at least until mid-January.
I'll have to be sure and check all the hives this winter more closely - they are using their stores quicker than I've seen before.


This is Hive #1 after combining the supers. The entrance reducer is on and they're ready for winter.
