I am wondering, how would a fellow go about and observe the behavour and 
habbits of wintering mites in a colony?  It would have to be done without 
any disturbance to the hive, otherwise the behaviour of the bees along 
with the mites would change, 

Perhaps an indoor wintered obsevation hive?  But then that still willnot 
give you a complete look at the wintering cluster, just a piece of it.  
Perhaps observing a piece or side of a wintering cluster is all that would 
be needed?

Anyhow, all comments or suggestions welcome!
