This is an update on the bees. It takes place three days after the installation of the package bees into the hive. In this video we open up the hive and check to see if the queen has been released from the queen cage. And we add frames to the hive. These are the frames where the bees will build honeycomb.
Want to see part 1 of this tutorial? This is where we pick up the three pound package of bees and install them, with the queen in her cage, into the hive.
Want to see a few really nice closeup pictures of bees? I have some here including a picture of the queen bee:

Special thanks to Dee and Tony. This is their hive. They have invited me to help care for the bees.
