Doug,
Excellent idea on the clear tape. I was doing everything except that. Thanks for the suggestion.
Today was warm enough to look at the bees. Well whats left of the bees. Only one of the 7 hives remains.
So I took the others apart and brought the remaining honey home. The bees that didnt make it had honey in the boxes. Not sure what happened.
This hive had been ocupied by a swarm and was not easy to work but made some honey for several years. It had no frames in the bottom boxes. They built there own natural rows of comb.
7 partially filled boxes taken home to be extracted.
Regards,
Chris
