We set the time, got tooled up and went down to the bottom of the garden prepared. Ben removed the lid and feeder and I removed the crown board, I turned the board over to have a look and was amazed at the amount of bees on the other side. Suprisingly I was calm. Ben lifted the frames one by one to check for grubs, the queen, drawn comb and honey... it was all there. In just one very productive week our little bees had gone mad refurbishing their new home. The first picture is one of our frames which was comb free last week.
The second is one of the frames our bees came on. On close inspection you can see the grubs.
This last picture is one of our frames again, last week it was empty and now its full of honeycomb..
