We extracted late this year due to a new grand daughter. Mid June. We generally shake the uncapped frames with a hard jerk. It seemed that in some the bees had water stored on each side of the frame maybe an inch or so in. Anyone else notice this?

Yes unless nature slows them down its gonna be hard to keep them in the box I think. We are manipulating frames now putting some empties in and taking a few necter filled ones out.

Have some hives near an area that is an old landfill now covered with lespedzea. Some are honey bound now! First fall honey bound situation I have ever had.

It seems around our area the golden rod started several weeks earlier than usual. Guess this means it will quit earlier? Anyone else seeing this? Could be a year for a lot of feed. Thoughts?
