1) charlie got stung in her hair. Same situation as me, bee got stuck in there. Yes, I did warn her to wear a hat beforehand. Thanks for asking :)
2) turns out all our 10-frame equipment only has 9-frames in it. oops, that explains why there's so much space between the frames.
3) We found a queen cell! (click for bigger)
I have heard that they sometimes make these without any intent to use them. I hope that's the case. It's late in the season for a swarm or a split.
4) the top bar is pretty much full-size and they are filling it with honey.
5) charlie thinks i have a 'local' allergy to beestings. Lasts a few days, with a little swelling.
6) drones are loud and sound like angry bees, but in reality they can't sting and are just freeloaders
