Have you read a good book lately? We can read the hive like a book. Turn the page (other side of the frame or remove a different frame) and the mystery story might be resolved or deepen. Unfortunately we might be looking at deadouts this month or next spring when we return to our bees. How to read frames and hives with emphasis on how to do a necropsy on dead hives.
