Very nice, thanks for sharing! That fluorescent orange must bee crazy-bright for the infrared-seeing bees!  Maybe they deserve some sunglasses.   8)

Thanks everyone.
Things are just now starting to get going and I just love this time of the year in the beeyards .
I check my hives every 10 days this time of the year so I can head off any hives that are thinking  about swarming and make sure all my queens are laying right. Hope everyone has a great year . I'm thinking the honey crop is going to be a good one in these parts we have not had a frost since everything started to bloom and the bees look heavy come in to the hives .So glad it's spring.

Are there two eggs in the same cell by the upper-most bee's head in the first picture?  What will happen in this scenario?

If there are, one will be removed by the workers.
