I love it when a plan comes together

Time: 12:30 pm
Weather: very slight breeze - mid 70s

I decided I needed to look at the back (north - right side really) of the hive to see what was going on there. They had also done just what I hoped for here. They had skipped the spacer and built their next comb in the center of the following (last) top board. They now have 7 bars of comb. Lots of Brood. I even found some drone brood. I found the queen. Got to watch her laying eggs. It's a blurry picture, but you can see her towards the top. I added another top bar to this end. With the 3 empty bars on the left (south) side, they now have 4 empty bars to build on.
