This is what the hive looks like on a normal day. There is normally not a whole lot of activity.

This is the hive on a very warm day after a rain. The bees are very active.

Notice the light brown area in the center of the frame. This is capped brood which will hatch into new worker bees.

This is some capped honey ready to be harvested.

This is a frame of uncapped honey. From here it goes to the extractor to be spun.

This is the honey extractor with four frames of honey comb.

17 pounds of honey from the first harvest in early Sep 2007. We got 17 more pounds at the end of Sep.
