Checking For Honey

Last week, around October 21, I checked the upper chamber. The picture shows a frame that has a lot of capped and uncapped honey. We have been feeding the bees sugar syrup daily for the past three weeks. Now that the weather has turned a bit colder, we can start the mite treatment with Mite-Away II. I will apply this tomorrow.

Graham and Casey

This picture was taken on the very first day of beekeeping. Graham had just come out and loaded the hive with bees and a queen. There is absolutely no way to express how great it has been to have someone like Graham help us with this adventure. Not only is his knowledge unparalled but his love and passion for honey bees is evident in everything that he does.
