Now I'm really motoring.
Found and marked the queen in the hive from which the nuc was taken on 2nd May. Green is the colour (of my true love's eyes - yes, it's true, but don't distract me with old song lyrics, probably mis-remembered). Green is the colour of 2009. So if the queen isn't green, she's been --- superseded. That's the bee rap,
She has layed about one frame of eggs.
See photo below of me marking her. Note the nurse bees getting very worried about what I was up to.
I have NOT clipped her wings - after the disaster in April.
