It's robbery! This is our medium honey super that wasn't quite full enough to harvest. We left it out for the bees to clean out -- robbing honey from here to fill the hive where they will spend the winter.
Time to clean and melt the wax we harvested with the last two honey supers prior to this one.
Boiling the wax with water will help get the honey and some of the debris out. I'll have to filter it after this. When I get around to it.
Our family started beekeeping in 2008 by complete accident. We liked it so much, even though we got NO honey from our loaner bees that we got some bees of our own in 2009.
We currently have Italian and Minnesota Hygienic honey bees.
