Well, the little Buckfast babes have released the queen and are rapidly drawing new comb where I cut out the moldy comb from the dead hive. They also tackled an extra project (see photo) so I put the other deep body on top. They may as well get busy collecting their winter stores. I have high hopes I can add the honey supers in time for the basswood nectar flow. Last year's basswood honey was light and slightly minty. What a treat!
