We didn't notice these blobs while we were doing the inspection - but saw them in the photo afterwards.

Any ideas please? Are they just reflections?

Thanks
Mandy
 
Looks like light shining through the comb from the other side.

Could well be.... Looking at the lower ones there looks like one blob, but three in the higher cells... Light refraction angles?


Poke a stick in and see if you can get anything out.
 
It is light shining through as you can see the "Y" from the cell behind.
 
Mandy,

It's just a bit of light reflection and if you look across the frame you'll see quite a few others - it looks like healthy brood comb to me with grubs on the right.

If you can get an image of Jesus or, even better, XXXX....sell it to The Sun and make a fortune!

Thanks everyone - I thought it was most likely to be light coming through from the cells behind but Mr M was worried about it, so I posted the question just in case :)

DrS - as I said, I didn't notice these at the time, which is why I thought it was probably an artefact of the photo, but I have seen cells with eggs (in spite of my ageing eyesight).

Richardbees - no images of JC or Sachin Tendulkar so far, but I'll keep an eye out for them!
