As ive said lets see what happens....

Difference is that I know what happens. I need not to see. Bees have their own speed and it is what it is.

But it is better look and see what happens. Good idea.

The beekeeping skill is that you know, what bees are going to do.
But everybody starts from beginning. There are still guys who try to climp to tree via top.

yes.. begining always a good place to start! all brood still expanding, ive tried to focus on getting drawn comb for bees to store for the winter now have lots of brood , drawn comb going to feed a little soon with a tymol surup then treat for varroa as a preventative measure. As for helicopters.. fine, however Boeings for me for the present!
