Are you doing any work on winter clusters? Things  may be very different in
your climate with your bees, but I'm beginning to  wonder whether, in theUK at
least, the traditional winter brood break really  happens at all. I think
there may be intermittent short breaks, but what  seems to happen is that there is
a small amount of brood present for much of the  winter, perhaps most of it.
But its hard to be sure, as I don't want to open  hives in cold weather.

    Regards,
