Hive Number Eight, just moved …

An observation hive is a small hive that the beeekeper uses to observe the bees. Sometimes they’re large, but this one is small, designed to hold only a single frame from a hive. I used it a few times to give lectures at schools about bees. The kids loved watching the bees in action, and the frame even had two drones and an empty queen cell, neither of which many people ever have the privilege of seeing.
