July 22, 2014:
I went out today to prop up the hive lid in preparation for a few hot dry days, and I pulled a few frames while I was there.
What I found was a few caps! The bees are starting to put caps on the honey in the top super, which means it has started to ripen. I didn't open up the lower super--I'll wait another week or so for that--but this sure made me happy.
And--aren't they just gorgeous?
