Our hives are flourishing, even in the extreme heat.
Our green hive seems to be the strongest,
with lots of bees on the outside.
So I added another super to the hive to give them more room.
Upon checking the hives we are finding capped honey on the frames.
When we opened our white hive,
we found lots of burr comb.
This was our error, since we
added a super without frames,
to protect our syrup feeder from varmits.
The bees used the space to make more comb & honey.
We had to scrape off this comb in order to insert frames.
But it wasn't wasted,
we had our first honey harvest and produced 8 jars of golden honey!
