Almost Fall

The days are getting shorter and colder. The bees are supposed to be getting ready for winter by topping off their honey and pollen supplies. Two of our three hives seem to be getting into winter mode but one is still raising brood in full force. Maybe she's part Italian?

Full pollen baskets!

The mite counts were starting to climb from August to September so I have the Apivar strips on all three hives.
