Peeked into the Dmitry hive to check on their progress and didn't bother with a veil as they've been so gentle, and I was only planning on a quick peek...
The second I picked up the top feeder I could see how feisty the bees have become and, while that's a really good sign, the feeder was full so I couldn't move fast enough to put it down. Those feisty bees got me - three times in my left arm and twice on my left thigh!
They're just about ready for the third box so will get that on this weekend. I had managed to escape from being stung all year until now. Guess I'm making up for lost opportunities.
