The difference of two hives. One is very busy while the other isn’t. Same amount of bees in both!

All of the tan colored cells are capped cells waiting for the new baby bees to emerge

Justin Beeber can only sting you One Time but he will do so to protect the hive, and he’s not Sorry. Great work!

Stab-bee Bea uses her antennae to check the temperature, helping the hive stay at its desired temperature around 95 degrees. Great work! Alyx Shade

Meet Casserole, right side neighbor to Green Bean! She’s doing great 😀

Jrue Honeyday fans the nectar to make sure the water content is below 18%, helping it turn into honey. Keep it up! merry 🧚🏼‍♀️

The bees went on a field trip to a preschool today!

Green Bean hard at work!

Casserole is getting so big. The top box (second picture) is so heavy I couldn’t pick it back up 😂 I had to take frames out and then put it back. That’s over 50 pounds of bees and honey!

Honey harvest 2024

Feeding the bees sugar water and bananas!

Green Bean’s pollen collection 😍

Casserole is so heavy now I have to take some frames out to move the top box! And a dry Swiffer pad to get the hive beetles.

Some pictures from the hive today

Happy National Honey Bee Day to Green Bean, Casserole, Priscilla and all their hard working bees! 🪻🌻🌺🐝

I got a photo with 4 bees entering with pollen pants! So exciting 😍

Bringing pollen into the hive!

A little bee with her proboscis out to eat some honey

Great frame of brood and honey 😍

The bees are starting to slow down for winter by getting lower in population and storing as much last minute food as possible
