Found the Queen

Yesterday Beth stopped by, on her way to work.  I love it when Beth stops by… She had to drop off a project for Noah to take to school.

While here she had a look at my observation hive, and found the queen!  I have looked for that queen for weeks now – and she walks in and finds it!  Mom’s are good at finding things….

She is a little larger than the worker bees around her, and has a different back.  In the picture below, you can see her on the left side of the exposed hive, about half-way from the top to the drawn comb.

Now that I’ve seen her, she should be easier to spot… or, at least, that’s the theory!
