Beehive, front entrance, May 28
The front door of my beehive, mid-afternoon. The bees that look like they have little orange saddlebags are carrying pollen into the hive.
Not necessarily. Foragers would still forage if the hive were making a new queen. If in 2-3 weeks it looks like my population is tanking (ie no new eggs were being laid), that's when I might know from the outside. I think. I'm still really new at this.
