Around 6pm – about 65 degrees. Some bees flying around both hives, but mostly quiet. Feeders still have about half left.

Replaced batteries in camera with Aldi package and turned on.

Hive #1 – Found queen alive and well. Five frames of brood, nectar and pollen in good patterns. New eggs laid. No new comb drawn on new frames. Some new comb on one side of one empty nuc frame. Brood in various stages.

Hive #2 – Found queen alive and well. Five frames of brood, nectar, and pollen in excellent patterns. Some new eggs laid. Lots of brood in various stages. Some new drawn comb on one side of new frame (second frame on left) and on the rightmost nuc frame (I think 7 from left). Some overbuilt comb between interior nuc frames. More capped honey than was present last Saturday.

Addy, Amber and Anna got a taste of honey! Also collected some wax.
