She's out...

The queen is out! The bees have drawn out three frames with comb, and the queen has been very busy laying eggs. the egga look like half pieces of rice- very small, but there. I am excited!!! Last time, we left a couple of the frames too far apart- and this caused the bees to draw out burr comb, as pictured below. We scraped the burr off and are keeping it to hopefully use for candles this winter.
