Just curious, I imagine you've inspected and measured some of the brood
comb. What are you seeing?
Also, I checked out your area on Google Earth some time back and noticed a
large wooded area near Derry, where I seem to recall that you are located.
I've wondered if that has proven a refuge for bees, or if you find more in
the nearby agricultural areas?
I've also wondered what size of apiary you maintain with these collected
bees.
