Hi All
 
Thanks for all of the help in the past. Here is a request for more assistance.
 
This is my second year in beekeeping and I am having severe problems in
seeing eggs. O how I envy beekeepers who pick up a frame and say where the
eggs are and how old they are, or say that there are definitely no eggs on
it. Sometimes I think I can see the eggs, but I am not sure. I yet know
little about beekeeping, but I do know that if you cannot see eggs you have
not got off first base with the craft.
 
I have tried a magnifying glass but I do not believe that it has helped me.
Someone said to me that the magnifying glass is self defeating as it blocks
the light shining on the frame.
 
What I was wondering about is, if there is any contrivance (maybe a
combination of a light source and magnification) which will assist someone
like myself to see these elusive eggs.
 
Thanks for any help
 
Sincerely
