I didn't open up hives today, contenting myself with a look through the clear crownboards and observation of activity at the entrance.
As there were a number of boxes that felt nailed down I decided to invest in some mechanical assistance. I went online and ordered a four wheel garden trolley with a flat bed and removable sides. This will carry two super boxes fore and aft and stack two or three high up to 300kg with pneumatic tyres and a draw bar handle. I anticipate receipt tomorrow then it will be time to begin the second honey extraction session of the season.
