Burr Comb



As you know, I released my queens this past Tuesday. My bees had already started making burr comb (loose, 'freestyle' comb, rather than comb built on the frames I provided) to fill up the space left between frames. Here are some pictures. As an interesting aside, the two bigger pieces of comb were made by the two Russian hives. The two smaller were made by my two Italian hives. Should I read anything into this?
