Apologies for not having posted recently - most of my regular readers will understand the reasons why.
I have a couple of updates coming about my own hives, but first I have some pictures (kindly taken by Ian) of the first couple of sessions with the ZEST hive:
Hiving the Bees
 |
| Suited up and ready! |
 |
| Moving the frames out of the nucleus... |
 |
| ... and into the ZEST hive. |
Second Inspection
 |
| Taking the roof off. |
 |
| Blocks to remove. |
 |
| Ready to look at the frames. |
 |
| Comb building has started! |
 |
| This old frame is removed, and burned. |
Next time, I'll have an update about what the Beechen Bees are up to.
