Went down to Beachland late in the day today.  The bees had been through one full feeder by Wednesday and apparently it only took them two days to suck down another feeder by today as there was NO sugar water in the feeder.  Amazing how quickly the bees are going through the sugar water.  Anyway, some additional comb has been drawn out.  There are still two frames on the ends that have not been drawn out.  The second frames in from the end are in the process of being drawn out.  But things are coming along nicely and lots of bees are hatching every day.  Looks like we might need the second deep frames soon afterall. We replaced the sugar water (with honey B healthy) in the feeder and even found the queen again too! Caught a few good pictures (below).
