James Crouch's video: 22 11 13 Relaxing Snow Ambience - Honey Bee Hive Security Feed More - Central Indiana USA

Central Indiana Bee Stream /"."\ /"."\ Suburban back yard bee hive security feed and more. I love to sit and watch the bees. Tune in. Watch some older footage. Watch for critters and nefarious folk? Maybe catch a swarm on video. Maybe even see the beekeeper fumbling about. Swing by the "upload" section for beekeeper action. Vibe of the Hives: 11/7/22 - Got super off of Woody. MANY MANY BEES. Queen present with no brood. That makes sense with the big population. Of the 8 frames two had significant partial capped honey but less than 60% drawn. NEXT year I will remove them sooner. Better to have had that stored in the two brood boxes. So, I am feeding some syrup heading up to the colder spell. Stumpy is also in two boxes with feed. CP, HF, DTNT, The Mountain still have supers on. 11/3/22 - Checked some hives. QV E1 looked good. In 2 deeps. Needs one frame swapped out. Gave them half patty and a couple litters of enhanced syrup. Went to remove supers from Corner Pocket and Happy Feet. Still have nectar coming in!? I left them on hoping they would consume what isn't capped. Will check around 11/12. I did swap a nearly capped frame down in HF for a nearly empty less developed frame. Both hives were hefty in the bottom two deeps. 10/21/22 - Woody looked thirsty with no brood. Went ahead and combined with small failing hive. Will feed heavy and check midweek. Shoved resources down into Stumpy. Basically four capped and four wet frames in 2nd. Funky or partial frames in super for tonight. May just yank and feed. 10/21/22 - After the first week of colder weather we have a warmer but windy pattern setting in. Time to clean up the yard. Fix the lighting. Adjust some hives. Goals. 10/16/22 - Pulled empty super from The Mountain. Syrup on four hives. 10/15/22 - Put syrup on four hives. Gave the failing hive some fondant and pollen patty. 10/15/22 - I have a failing hive. There really is only like one frame of bees. At this point a one frame split in the spring would have a much better chance. I will toss some feed on them. I already attempted to add bees/feed a couple times. 10/6/22 - Bottled first samples from three batches. Handed them to my neighbor. 10/2/22 - Another 150 pounds of honey in the buckets from about 17 frames. 9/23/22 - Hive in the north is in two heavy eight frame deeps. Several nearly blank frames remain. Since they were not really monitoring the 3rd box there were some beetles that had set up shop. Perhaps they were getting mad at that. Pulled unused super. There were maybe only 20 bees in it 5 minutes later. Twenty beetles too. O.o. The honey frames all looked great. I did not inspect any frames in the bottom. 9/19/22 - Hive in the north is reportedly very defensive and agitated. 9/10/22 - Pulled four capped frames each from Happy Feet and Corner Pocket. Removed super box from each. Happy Feet, shuffled out blankish frames. Moved all full frames down. Still a couple sides blank but other side fully developed. One genetic trait the bees can exhibit is fully completing one side at a time before starting on another. I am sure population and resources availability is a big part of that. I only looked in boxes above queen exluder in Corner Pocket. 8/31/22 - 2 of 4 Fence Row Hives are low in numbers. They have capped honey but very little nectar or new pollen. I poured honey into a dry comb frame for the weakest one. I will feed them and see if the queens start laying again. 8/27/22 - Four southern hives good. No honey pulled. 8/25/22 - Northern hive check good. On 12 frames. Stopped looking at first brood frame. At least 6 capped. 8/20/22 - Corner Pocket, QR, Robbed a capped frame from supers. Four frames in brood boxes not fully drawn.. 8/10-11 - Woody, The Mountain and Stumpy all doing just fine. Added 2nd super back to The Mountain with 5 dark extracted frames, 5 coated. 7/22-8/6 - Fence row hives 3 of 4 looking great. "Woody" rocking, still feisty. Managed to extract some honey and give the drawn frames to "Happy Dance" with a 3rd box. 7/24/22 - All hives have laying queens. 15 hives. 7/11/22 - Happy Feet - Installed NSF Tree City Bees queen in a cage with frame of brood and extracted honey comb.
