San Queens--8/31/08

11:30am. Clear blue, light wind, c. 70º. SQ has 4 supers. A lot of pollen coming in

S4, they've started drawing all the undrawn frames out. Some honey.

S3, honey. Couple frames about 10# each, capped, and lots open. Pollen in the middle, some of it not packed down but loose kernels. A little bit of brood comb on the bottom.

S2, Worker brood that was pretty good, but it was starting to get spotty. No open brood. No sighted mites.

Saw one wax moth in the hive. Put on obs board. All told in the top 2 supers, there was about 58# of honey.
