On Feb 18th I reported fitting a clear plastic window into my veil to improve vision when trying to see eggs etc. At that stage I had not opened my hives but promised to report back.

My lightweight bee suit is rather floppy so I wear a hat which lifts the window to eye level. A baseball cap might be even better.
