Honey Flow



The basswood trees are blooming, and the Buckfast hive is ready to take advantage. They've filled one super with capped honey. The second super is fully drawn into comb where last winter's damage was cut out, and several frames are full of uncapped honey. I added two new supers and they now reside in a high rise.

The Italian hive is coming along slowly. Five plus frames fully drawn. Three frames full of capped brood. No sign of mites or other nasties in either hive.
