A Good Honey Year!

It's March and we are harvesting lots of honey already. Below are some pictures of my overcrowded hive. I tried to make some room for them today by removing (6) completely capped frames of honey. In a couple of days, I'll have even more to harvest because several frames were just about completed. I'll leave them in there for them to finish up, then we'll remove those and give them some empty ones to fill up.

 Do you think there are some bees in there?

 Lots of bees means lots of honey :)

They were especially lively today as I removed some of the fruit of their labor. They don't mind too much though, since they just keep bringing more back to their home.
