> Empty hives full of honey and pollen but no bees. Not dead with heads in cells or on the bottom board might be one symptom.
Or how about this: the colony died in the middle of winter, but like you said, not with heads in cells or on the bottom board. The dead bees were all still there but jammed into the corners and along the edges of the hive, like they were trying to get out in a panic.
