Bee AC


You can't really see it's wings, but this bee is really moving them and so are a lot of her friends.  There are several bees on the other side of the hive doing the same thing.  This picture is through the observation window and the bee is sitting on the window, not going any where.  This is helping to ventilate the hive.  With all those bees on the comb it could get really hot in there.  The bees maintain the temperature between 93-95 degrees pretty much year round.
