Rosier inspection

I peaked through the rosier tbh this afternoon.
lots of bees.
Showing the first signs of swarming
• queen cups (though all were empty)
• tons of capped brood
• starting to backfill the brood area (though I still found eggs)

I figure if I don't split them in the next 2 weeks, they'll split themselves and swarm.
I did see the queen and her wings looked a bit ragged on the ends.
