Oh thanks Sara : ) Getting bitten wasn't interesting... I hope that doesn't occur too many times! I do find their progress interesting though, the difference shown here was in a 2 week time period which I think is exceptional considering it is winter here now.
I have seen some posts from other local bee keepers where their bees started eating their honey stores a few weeks ago. To see our girls are still making, storing and capping off honey is GREAT! : ) Fingers crossed they can continue this for a few more weeks yet! We may be able to do our fist extraction of honey soon if they keep this up!
