Walked out to check the bees this afternoon around 4:00 pm. The main hive and the middle hive had more bees coming and going than I have ever seen! The middle hive has been really quiet up until now. But today, very, very active. Hopefully not pre-swarm activity.
Honey flow? Maybe. Should be sourwood if it is. We'll know better on Sunday when we check.
