End of season feeding time
Visited bees at Prairie Hawk last week. Made sure reducer board was only one opening to minimize cold air coming in. Bees weren't happy for the visit late in the day. Had to use a flashlight and car headlights but temperature was 67 degrees. All was well. Forgot I still had a honey super on large hive. Guess they should have enough surplus honey throughout winter. Not sure if I will remove or not. Honey selling briskly the last couple of weeks. Excited about what the next year will bring.
